Trips Together Named Most Innovative Travel Planning App 2026 by LUXlife Magazine

Trips Together has been recognised by LUXlife Magazine as the Most Innovative Travel Planning App 2026, in their annual Travel and Tourism Awards. The awards programme celebrates companies advancing the travel industry through technology and better experiences for travellers.

We're genuinely proud of this one.

The problem we're solving

Anyone who has tried to organise a group trip knows how it goes. One person ends up managing everything: polling availability, researching destinations, chasing confirmations, and keeping track of decisions that were made across six different chat threads three weeks ago. By the time the trip happens, whoever planned it is exhausted.

Group travel planning is a coordination problem that existing tools weren't built to solve. Most booking platforms are designed for individuals. Spreadsheets work until they don't. Group chats lose information fast.

What Trips Together does

Trips Together brings the whole group into one place. Everyone can join the trip, share their availability, vote on destinations, and see what's been decided — without the planner having to relay everything manually.

The scheduling features show when everyone is free at the same time, which is usually the hardest part. The destination tools let the group explore options together and reach decisions without the extended back-and-forth that normally takes weeks.

The goal isn't to automate group travel. It's to make the coordination less painful, so the people who usually end up doing all the work don't have to carry it alone.

What the award means

Recognition from LUXlife validates the direction we've been building towards. Group travel is growing — more friends, more communities, more couples planning longer trips together — and the tools to support it haven't kept pace. We're trying to change that.

If you haven't tried Trips Together yet, you can create a trip and invite your group for free.
