Trip & Calendar Mapping

Overview

MileIntel keeps your calendar and trips in sync. A flight confirmation in your email can automatically become a trip on your Dashboard, and a trip you create manually can automatically appear on your Google Calendar. Here's how the mapping works in both directions.

Calendar to Trips

When MileIntel detects a travel event (from Gmail or Google Calendar), it:

1. Checks if the event matches an existing trip by date range and destination.
2. If a match exists, the event is linked to that trip and its details (flight number, times, confirmation code) are added.
3. If no match exists, MileIntel creates a new trip automatically with the destination and dates pre-filled.

This means booking a flight through any airline site will generate a trip in MileIntel within 15 minutes — no manual input needed.

Trips to Calendar

If you've enabled calendar write-back (Settings > Calendar > Write-back), creating or updating a trip in MileIntel pushes events to your Google Calendar. Each flight leg becomes a separate calendar event with departure/arrival times, airline, and flight number in the title.

Key Details

• Auto-created trips are tagged as "auto-detected" so you can distinguish them from manual ones.
• You can unlink a calendar event from a trip without deleting either one.
• Multi-leg trips group all flights under a single trip, even if the booking confirmations arrive separately.

Tips

1. If a calendar event creates a trip you don't want, delete the trip — MileIntel won't recreate it from the same event.
