What is KAYAK Trips?

KAYAK Trips is our free tool for organizing all your travel plans and keeping your itineraries accessible from anywhere. It centralizes your bookings, confirmations, and travel ideas in one place so you can access them from your desktop or the KAYAK app when you’re on the move.

How KAYAK Trips works.

Build your itinerary:

  • Forward booking confirmations from any travel site to trips@ca.kayak.com to automatically create an itinerary
  • Manually add activities and other trip details
  • Save flight and hotel searches to track price changes

Stay updated:

  • Enable SMS flight status alerts by adding your mobile number in Notifications Settings (app only)

Setting up KAYAK Trips.

If you don’t have a KAYAK account, forwarding a confirmation email to trips@ca.kayak.com will automatically create one. You’ll receive a verification email – click “confirm” to activate your account and access your trip.
