Open TripAlta if the next step after the draft is a flight, a stay, an activity, or an eSIM, and you want the product to say it will not book without you. On November 2, 2026 the pricing page lists Traveler at $0: 50 messages a month, 3 active trips, up to 5 companions, and booking for flights, stays, activities, and eSIMs. Alta Plus is $7.99 a month or $79 a year billed yearly, with 250 messages, unlimited trips, up to 10 companions, offline access, and PDF export. The page says cancel anytime and the plan stays until the period ends. The terms agree on those two prices, name the suppliers behind the bookings, and say paid plans renew automatically and that subscription fees are non-refundable except where the law requires a refund. The same terms still say some limits depend on Free, Explorer, or Pro. The pricing page does not use Explorer or Pro. The terms name iOS and Android apps. The homepage, pricing page, and about page do not link a store. A sample trip on the homepage is labeled illustrative. Do not treat its fares as a quote.
Open Vacation Planner if you are planning one trip and you want the credit cap written down before you pay for a second. Free is $0 a month for one vacation, with as many destinations as that trip has. The assistant is 25 credits a day, up to 100 a month, and the page says one credit is one answer or one round of cards. Free includes the itinerary, flights, stays, activities, view-only sharing, an annual calendar, and forwarding booking emails into the trip. Premium is $4.99 a month or $49.99 a year, printed as two months free, with unlimited trips, unlimited AI credits, and Gmail sync. The page says no credit card to start, and cancel anytime. The homepage says a trip from ChatGPT or Claude can be saved in. It says the plan works on a phone, tablet, or computer, and it does not link an app store. It does not describe a checkout that charges the hotel.
The cheaper paid sticker is Vacation Planner, at $4.99 against $7.99. The free plans are not the same object. TripAlta's free plan is three trips and a message cap, and it describes booking. Vacation Planner's free plan is one vacation and a credit cap, and the share is view-only. Read the cap that matches the trip you actually have.
