Tour | Booking Settings - Tour/Departure/Trip types

🎬 🍿 Watch our Product Feature tour to learn more

The Departure or Trip Type settings allows you to set up the categories of trip types you offer, e.g. Package, custom, and also describe the costing structure. It can also be used to describe a trip type for the purposes of making conditional rules in Mail Jet. For example, your trip types could be categorised as "gravelbike" "ebike" "nobike", and then MailJet can contain specific blocks of text if "{{var:L3Type:""}} equals gravelbike".

The main purpose of the Departure types is for internal reporting purposes, but can also be used for setting conditional rules in MailJet.
