CheckMyTrip – Travel Itinerary Reviews

by Joe928

Update.... Still not working as it should. Sent in an email for round trip Air and another email for hotel at the destination and the same hotel upon return to the originating point. Why does it show as 3 separate trips? I now have one trip showing for the hotel outbound, another trip for the round trip air and yet another trip for the return hotel. I only use CheckMyTrip because my travel company uses it but would like to use it exclusively. Until it is fixed, I’ll continue uses Kayak which works all the time.

Works great on 2 out of 3 trips I have tried to input. For some reason it won't accept one of the trips on United although another trip that was accepted was United as well. This has the makings of a great app. It has all the pertinent information I need concerning my schedules and I really want to like it but unless it can consistently prove accurate. This is the message I get when trying to input one trip: "8104 - We are unable to find this confirmation number. Please validate your entry and try again or contact us for further information. (8104 [1929])" If this worked, I would easily give it 5 stars. I could be that good. Others had the same problem. Please fix!

We booked a trip w/ Great Value Vacations & they informed us that all changes & travel alerts would be made via this app so we need to use CheckMyTrip . However, CheckMyTrip does NOT recognize the reservation number & when we’ve tried sending our itinerary via email (per their instructions), we receive a response stating our information can not be added. There is no customer service number or information re: adding our trip manually. We’re taking a multi-flight vacation in 2 countries so accuracy re: our trip details is imperative. We’ve contacted Great Value Vacations & they were absolutely no help. Have tried several times to send trip information to this app along with a request for assistance but only receive a “canned” reply. I’d say their customer service is poor but there is no service.

I forwarded my flight confirmation, and CheckMyTrip initially displayed the flight information correctly. The next time I opened my trip in CheckMyTrip , CheckMyTrip had the wrong date and time for the first leg of my flight - off by almost two months. I closed CheckMyTrip then opened it a few hours later. The flight information was still wrong, just a different wrong. Now CheckMyTrip showed the first leg of my flight as being about 9 hours earlier than it actually is scheduled and the second leg of the flight about 13 hours earlier than it is actually scheduled for - both legs of the flight are wrong, and the flight times overlap by several hours. Yes, i double checked my reservation with the airline on line, and my flights are at the times I originally scheduled. The problem is with CheckMyTrip , and it makes CheckMyTrip useless.

Has been working great for 4 trips. Did hit a snag when I arranged an airport to hotel transfer that didn’t show up. That took a while to get a refund. But the big problem is trip five. The info posted is incorrect. It can’t be deleted. When I tried to correct one of the connecting flights, I was able to but the wrong information also remained. Another connecting flight is also wrong and when I tried to correct it, the correction didn’t appear. The whole thing now looks like a mess. If you go to app support...you simply get general information and how to download CheckMyTrip . Can’t contact anyone to fix the problem.

I have a simple question for these folks - how do I set the monetary denomination for activities? Right now it’s showing in euros, even for trips and activities entirely within the US. I’d like to set it to dollars.
The bigger problem is that there is absolutely no way to reach anyone at this company. There is nowhere to put a question, there is no email address, no form to fill out on CheckMyTrip or the website, simply no door to knock on to get any kind of response from anyone within this company. So that’s not so great. A company that completely locks itself out from its users is, in my experience, not going to create a satisfactory user experience.
And I have to do all the monetary calculations by hand it to convert from euros to dollars. Dumb.
Other than that, I haven’t had any trouble with it. I have been able to get my trips to show in CheckMyTrip just fine.

I would like to see a few more things: ability to add or interface with Air b&b or VRBO, at the moment you can’t even really enter them. Ability to edit entries that are forwarded by email. Ability to enter details about gates, cars, seats either in the main entry or a notes section for important information. So far it’s nice for keeping track of planes, trains and hotels, but flexibility is lacking. At this point my calendar has more flexibility than CheckMyTrip for what I want to do. It’s a great idea it just needs more development.

I’ve been using this to help organize my business travel and find it very useful. Adding to the itinerary via email is very straightforward, though the server that supports this seems to have trouble interpreting some of my travel notifications and these have to be done manually. Folks with heightened information privacy concerns probably should be wary: how CheckMyTrip and the supporting server protect (or distribute) personal information isn’t clear.

I really enjoy using CheckMyTrip. For the most part, it’s user friendly, helps you keep up with your travel necessities. CheckMyTrip is perfect for people who are always on the go and have a hard time remembering what time the flight leaves, did they book a car or hotel for the trip? Etc.
One downfall is when you forward your email confirmation to them to add to your itinerary, it doesn’t always go through. I usually buy my flights through 3rd party venders so I can get a cheap fight and they emails aren’t always the best. So forwarding them to Check My Trip, gets a little challenging. Luckily there’s an option to add it in manually, but doing so won’t give you the awesome updates on your flight like ex: “flight 305 is delayed by 1 hour”.
Also, I’m so sick and tired of Ads. They are anywhere and everywhere (including CheckMyTrip).

I really liked using check my trip. I just emailed to them the itineraries of several flights I had within a great trip we had planned (before Covid-19 interrupted them). CheckMyTrip put all of the flight details in one handy place where I could easily pull them up and I had to, indeed, to keep track of which ones were being cancelled at any point. It was much easier than using the individual airlines’ sites in several cases in fact. This is an app I will definitely use again in the future.

I bought last minute tickets from a weird intermediary website because they were a fourth of the price as other airlines. Problem was, their number didn't work and it kept changing as I was trying to contact them. Super sketch. Bottom line, they didn't send me my boarding passes until after my flight. I was not paid to write this review or anything. But if you run into a problem like this download this app so you can actually get your boarding passes before the plane takes off, and never but plane tickets from sites like Opodo or Edreams.

I get updates about changes to flights in a timely manner —something the airlines aren’t so good at. I don’t have to check myself which is wonderful.

I just used the calendar sync. Love it! An upcoming trip has 15 flights over 3+ weeks and with one click all that is in my calendar. What a time saver! Not to mention less error prone.

Have used it for my own flights and that of friends coming to visit me. Although it hasn’t always worked for adding hotels, the ability to manually enter the information circumvents this problem.
Extremely helpful in keeping me organized and on time across varying airports and countries. The alerts of time and gate changes are invaluable!

by MelanieIntheknow

A few days ago, I had a delayed and eventually cancelled flight - CheckMyTrip provided accurate and up to date info on what was happening with my flight status. I had updates on CheckMyTrip before the gate agents and the specific airlines mobile app had the info. I was sharing updates with other passengers and they all quickly downloaded CheckMyTrip.

Check My Trip is a great place to store my trip schedules. I’m traveling around the world and in Eurasia right now. I have set up a home base in Siem Reap, Cambodia. So many of my trips start from there. It’s really inexpensive there and a lot of people speak English. I have about 10 trips a year and it was very easy to get mixed up with some trips on Orbitz, some on Priceline, and some just booked directly with the assorted Airlines. Now its all conveniently located in one app. Check My Trip, and it’s so easy. Just email you information from each sight and Check My Trip does all of the rest of the organizing for me. Love it!
Now from a very well organized World Traveler.
Best Regards,

I had booked flights in March for August travel. Downloaded CheckMyTrip on Tuesday and CheckMyTrip told me that 3 out of my 4 flights were canceled or changed. I never got a notification from airline or Chase portal. Without CheckMyTrip I would have had quite a nasty surprise come August. Thanks to this app I’m able to fight the changes or reschedule with enough to me before the flights.

I downloaded CheckMyTrip because the travel agency (Great Value Vacations booked through Groupon) I used suggested I do this in order to track my upcoming trip to Rome. Not only was confirming my vacation extremely easy, looking for and booking activities through CheckMyTrip was amazing! You can get literally everything done in one place. From booking transportation to and from the airport to your hotel, to finding whole city walking tours, CheckMyTrip helps you get it done. I’m sure there are many other deals to find if you look somewhere else, but for first time travelers, I would highly recommend CheckMyTrip for ease, convenience, and a peace of mind.

It is a great app to organize and remind you about travel arrangements. It keeps your trips in a chronological order and sends you notifications about changes: time, gates and help you with local information and airport transportation. Very easy to include a new trip just forwarding the confirmation by e-mail. I have been using for a long time, for my own business and holiday travel but I also included travel from close members of my family, so I won’t forget. Awesome.

I’ve always relied on Check My Trip as a reminder and timely updates. Now more than ever it’s necessary to keep up with reroutes, cancellations and time changes for my flights. Check My Trip updated my flights and alerted me to the many, many flight changes sometimes days before the airlines or my travel agent did. Whether you have 1 or many trips in the future It is a must have friendly tool.

by Relaxed G

I was amazed to see how quickly the changes/updates to my flight were uploaded. I made an update through the airline & a couple of minutes later I checked the “check my trip” app and saw the updates. I was a little hesitant at first and wondered how reliable CheckMyTrip is because I had issues in the beginning. However, it turns out that the issue was traced back to the travel agency. I’m grateful for CheckMyTrip because now the travel agency & airline are on the same page.

I had been using another travel/reservations tracking app for awhile, when my primary travel company, Overseas Adventure Travel, started using this app. It became very inconvenient to have both so I switched. I have found this app to work perfectly nearly every time (only Volaris Airlines, a Mexican carrier wouldn’t work) and the apps ability to import all sorts of formats is amazing. It even understands to insert elements of the same trip, but added later, into the right place. Works with hotels and rental cars, too. All you need and free (at least, the version I use).
