Girls' Trips

Six itineraries, one group chat, zero arguments.

Written for the one friend who always ends up organising it

You know who you are. You made the group chat, you made the spreadsheet, you chased everyone for their dates, and somewhere around the fourth 'whatever works for me!' you started to wonder whether you actually wanted to go.

Where this usually goes wrong

Everyone has an opinion, nobody has a decision
Six people who all want input and none of whom want to make the booking.
Budgets differ and nobody says so
The gap between what people can spend and what they will admit to is where these trips break down.
Chasing deposits ruins friendships
Being the person who fronted the room and now has to ask for money is not a holiday.
Flights from four cities
Coordinating arrivals so the first night isn't spent waiting on the last person.

What Shanair does about it

One organiser, and it isn't you
Shanair becomes the point of contact so you can go back to being a friend on the trip.
Options priced honestly
Room and tier choices laid out so people can self-select without an awkward conversation.
Individual payments where suppliers allow it
Depending on the property, travelers may be able to pay their own portion directly.
Arrivals sequenced
Flights and transfers timed so the group actually starts together.
