Quick Trip Entry is the fastest way to get a sale into JourneyFuse. One window creates the client (if they're new), the trip, the booking, and the deposit, all in one save. Open it from the New menu in the top bar and choose Quick Trip Entry.
The first row of the window is a row of pills: Cruise, Resort, Hotel, Package, Tour and Other. Pick one and the form changes to show only the fields that kind of booking needs. The client, advisor, deposit, final payment and hold fields stay the same whichever type you pick.
| Type | What you fill in |
|---|---|
| Cruise | Ship and sail date, cruise line, confirmation number, embark port, then the cabin: category, cabin number, deck and dining time. Money is the cruise fare plus taxes and port fees, with an optional NCF. |
| Resort | Resort name, check-in and check-out (the nights count themselves), room type, number of rooms, package price plus taxes and fees, and the free-cancellation date. |
| Hotel | Hotel name, check-in and check-out, room type, rooms, and the rate per night. The total works itself out from rate × nights, and you can type over it. Tick Pay at hotel when the client pays the hotel directly. |
| Package | For Disney- and Universal-style packages where the resort, tickets and dining are one price: supplier, resort, check-in and check-out, room type, tickets, dining plan, package price and confirmation number. |
| Tour | For a guided tour or activity: operator, tour name, start and end dates, meeting point and meeting time, tour price, the free-cancellation date and confirmation number. |
| Other | Flights, rail, transfers, car rentals, excursions, insurance and anything else. Choose the kind from the Other menu and fill in the familiar supplier, confirmation number and total cost. |
Everything you type lands on the booking itself, in the same places the booking editor shows it, so nothing has to be re-entered on the trip later.
A few details worth knowing:
On Cruise, press Find a sailing next to the ship. Choose the cruise line, then the ship and month, and press Select on the sailing. JourneyFuse fills in:
When you save, the day-by-day port schedule is added to the booking from the same sailing. You can also just type the ship name if the sailing isn't in the list.
Once there's a ship and a sail date, a quiet line under the ship tells you how many other bookings your agency already has on that sailing, for example "4 other bookings in your agency on this sailing". Cancelled bookings aren't counted. Click it to open the full list of everyone on that ship and date in a new tab, the same list the top search shows for a sailing, so you can see who to pull into a group. Advisors see the bookings they can normally see.
Families often take more than one cabin: two connecting cabins and one next door. On Cruise, press Add cabin under the first cabin. Each extra cabin asks only for what's different: category, cabin number, deck, dining, its own fare and taxes, and Guests. The ship, sail dates, cruise line, ports, hold and confirmation number come from the first cabin. Type a confirmation number on an extra cabin only when the line gave it its own.
On Resort and Hotel, the button is Add room, and each extra room asks for room type, price, confirmation number (if different) and guests.
When you save, every cabin or room becomes its own booking on the trip, just as if you'd added them one at a time:
The line under the money row adds everything up, for example "3 cabins · Total $9,764.72 · commission $842.00". Remove a row with its ×. Save & enter another clears the extra rows along with the rest of the booking.
Extra cabins aren't offered when you start from a confirmation, because the confirmation's own bookings are imported as they are.
On Cruise, under the cabin details, there are two more fields:
Extra cabins from Add cabin have their own Group # and Dining party. Leave them blank and the cabin uses the first cabin's. Type a different group number to split a cabin into a second group, which is what happens when the first block runs out of cabins. However many cabins share a number, the group is found or created once and every cabin is added to it.
If a group can't be linked, the trip still saves and a message tells you. You can add the cabin later from the booking or from the sailing list. See Group Bookings for the sailing list's group view.
Type the Cruise fare and the Taxes & port fees from the confirmation, and the total is worked out for you. If the cruise line lists a non-commissionable fare (NCF), type it in the NCF box: commission is then figured on the fare minus the NCF, exactly as the booking editor does it. A line under the money row shows the total and the figure commission is being worked out on.
On Resort, Hotel and Package, click into the resort field and your agency's saved resorts (from the Library) are listed first. As you type, matching resorts from the JourneyFuse supplier catalog appear below them. Pick one and its name fills in, and the destination too when the catalog knows where it is and you haven't typed one. If the place isn't listed, just keep typing: whatever you type is saved as the name.
Each pill has a small star (☆). Tap it and Quick Trip Entry opens on that type every time you use it, on any device. Tap the filled star (★) again to clear it.
If you haven't starred one, the window opens on your agency's default. Owners and admins set that in Settings → Agency & Branding → Defaults → Quick Trip Entry (on a solo account, Settings → My Business → Quick Trip Entry). Choose What we book most there and JourneyFuse picks Cruise, Resort, Hotel, Package or Tour from your agency's recent bookings, so a cruise agency opens on Cruise before anyone has set anything.
A dropped confirmation always wins for that entry: drop a Sandals confirmation while you're on Cruise and the form switches to Resort, because the file says what the booking is.
Press + New next to Client, or type a name in the client search and choose Create. A short panel asks for the first name, last name and birthday. The birthday is optional, but it's the one thing that tells two clients with the same name apart.
If you already have clients with that name, they're listed right there with their birthdays, so you can pick the right one instead of creating a duplicate. Once a client is picked, their birthday shows under their name.
When you add travelers under Travelers, you can give each one a birthday too. It's saved with the traveler.
Drop the cruise line's or supplier's confirmation at the top of the window (a PDF, a screenshot, or pasted email text). JourneyFuse sets the booking type, fills in that type's fields, and marks everything it filled with a small AI tag. Check them, change anything that's wrong, and press Create Trip. See AI Booking Import for how the client is matched and how payments are recorded.
If you're holding a cabin or room without a deposit, fill in Hold expires. Your cabin-hold automation then reminds you before the hold lapses.
The fields you only need now and then sit under More:
Press Save & enter another instead of Create Trip. The trip is saved, a message with an Open trip link appears, and the window stays open with the client and booking cleared. The advisor and the booking type stay as they were.
On a cruise, Keep this sailing for the next entry (at the bottom of the window) also keeps the ship, dates, cruise line and ports, which is handy when you're entering a whole group on one sailing.
How clients accept an individual proposal through guided checkout — picking their option, entering traveler details and authorizing the deposit.
Create self-service group booking pages where travelers can pick packages, fill forms, and book — all from a single shareable link.
Track every reservation in one place — flights, cruises, hotels, and more — with automatic commission calculations and invoice generation.
