Itineraries

  • An itinerary is a route divided into legs showing the planned locations and dates of the main stopovers from the start (S) (initial departure) to the finish (F) (final arrival), which is the destination of the vessel's journey (also called voyage, trip, torn, or expedition).

Each leg has a departure and an arrival date and location. It may also have additional waypoints in between, which might be stopping points or course change points.

Accuracy of itineraries

Itineraries for vessels at sea are never precise! We use three accuracy levels for the planning status to avoid confusion about what is likely to happen or not:

  • Pending (not accurate) – initial idea, possibilities
  • Preliminary (kinda accurate) – changes may still apply
  • Planned (reasonably accurate) – this is what's meant to happen
Days vs Nights

The duration of an itinerary is counted in days (start to end date) and the leg in nights (departure to arrival date). That is because you may arrive on a Monday and leave on a Tuesday. Therefore, there can be confusion if you were there for one or two days, but it would strictly count as one night without any confusion.

Therefore, you would say you went on a 14-day holiday or trip (the itinerary) and spent 13 nights on all your legs combined, for example.

Planning vs Estimates

There is also an important distinction between planning (what's the intention) and estimating (what's calculated). A time of arrival is always an estimate as a calculation is required; that's why it is called ETA (Estimated Time of Arrival).

You can't plan to leave San Francisco and arrive in Hawaii 10 minutes later, regardless of how desperate your intention is. If you intend to arrive in Hawaii by a certain date and estimate 10 days for the journey, then you can plan to leave San Francisco 12 to 15 days before. Therefore, your departure date is planned (what's the intention), and the arrival is still an estimate (what's calculated based on season, winds, currents, and many other factors). Plans can change due to weather, government requirements, breakdowns, delays, etc.

Tips for planning an itinerary

The following tips are worth noting to manage your itinerary and maintain an excellent overview:

  1. Name your itinerary with a short and clear title, such as 2025 Antarctic Expedition or 2025 Italy Family Cruise, that is descriptive, easy to remember, and simple to refer to in conversations.
  2. You can set your itinerary's visibility to private while planning it, share it with only those you contact, or share it with anyone who views your profile.
  3. Next, add each leg of the significant stopovers by date and location.
  4. Then, keep updating each leg as required.

Be realistic and mindful when planning an itinerary. People will arrange their timing and life around it, taking time off work, booking flights, arranging accommodation, etc. It's crucial to let the crew know how accurate they can expect the itinerary to be.

Make Your dream come true!
Have You been dreaming of sailing in the high seas, around the clock and sometimes under tough
conditions? This is the trip for You. Our adventure sailing trips are a mix of coastal sailing and two to three day crossings of the seas. On each trip there is a professional skipper with Yacht master
unlimited and a mate that is going through the same training. Weather conditions affect all our
planning, so the original itinerary is a flexible guideline for us. The safety of the vessel and crew is
always our priority. We discuss together the different options any given time ensuring that You can be
a part of creating a great trip. You do not need to be an expert sailor, but the trip will be more fun if
You are somewhat experienced in sailing. Adventure spirit and positive attitude will take you far. If
you are fully committed to the trip, whatever happens, you will have the experience of a lifetime. This
is the next step for you as a sailor.

Best regards Captain Björn
