Why trip dates are the hardest part

Everyone agrees the trip is a great idea. Then someone asks "so when?" and the chat splits into work schedules, kids' school calendars, weddings, and a friend who can't commit until their manager approves time off. Unlike a dinner, a trip needs several days in a row to work for several people at once, and trying to hold all of that in a scrolling chat is how trips quietly never happen.

How Commonhour works for a group trip

Create a plan and turn on All day. Use the date range option to add the whole window you're considering, like every day in June, in a few taps.
Share one link in the group chat. Nobody needs an account or an app; they open the link and tap each day they're free.
Watch the ranked list fill in. The days the most people can make rise to the top, with a note of who can't make each one, so a stretch of good days is easy to spot.
Pick a day and send an all-day calendar invite to everyone who's free, so the date stops living only in the chat.

Built for the way trips actually get planned

Days, not time slots. All-day plans skip times and time zones entirely. People just tap the days that work.
Plan up to 60 days out in one go. Add a long window once instead of making a new poll for every weekend.
See who's missing, not just who's in. Each day shows who can't make it, so you know whether a date loses the one person the trip is for.
Calendar invites are free, always. Google Calendar, Outlook, or an .ics file, with everyone who's free already added as a guest.

What it doesn't do yet

Commonhour scores each day on its own. There's no way to vote on a block of days as a single option, and booking creates an all-day event for one day. For a long weekend, look for the run of days near the top of the list, book the first one, and extend the event to the last day in your calendar. It also doesn't handle flights, lodging or splitting costs; it's just for landing on dates.

Group trip scheduling questions

Can people pick a range of days, like Friday to Sunday?

Each day is marked on its own, so people tap every day they're free. The ranked list shows how many people can make each day, which makes it easy to spot a stretch of days that works for most of the group.

Can I book a multi-day trip as one calendar event?

Not yet. When you book, Commonhour creates an all-day calendar event for one day. For a longer trip, book the first day and stretch the event to the last day in your calendar app.

How far ahead can I plan?

You can add up to 60 dates to one plan, from any point in the future. Pick them one by one or use the date range option to add a whole stretch at once.

Does everyone need an account?

No. Friends just open the link and tap the days they're free. Without an account a plan takes up to 12 responses; if your group is bigger, a free account removes the limit.
