How does the Trip Approval feature work?

This feature allows you to add an approver to a trip, so they can approve or reject a booking. If they approve it, the trip will be published and sent out to the traveler.

Sending a trip approval for a trip you created manually:

1. The Trip Approval won’t work on a published trip, since it’s already been approved. You would need to go to a draft OR create a new trip and not publish it.
2. In the new trip or draft, go to the “Trip Status” section of the trip and select “Approval Required”
3. Go to the “Trip Admin” section, add the approver and select the “Approver” role.  
4. When you are ready, select the “Send Approval Request” button in the “Trip Status” section. The approver will then receive a confirmation email so they can approve or reject the trip.

You can see all the approval requests in the “Trips” > “Trip Approval Requests” section of your CMS.

Sending a trip approval via GDS or API: 

Details on how to do this with API or GDS can be found in mTrip’s GDS/API documentation.

If you do not have access to that documentation, please reach out to your sales representative or the mTrip support team.
