Travel Presence Made Simple for Real Itineraries
Manual presence tracking usually fails when routes are complex or plans change. The reliable approach is to derive presence from the trip timeline you already maintain.
Why manual counting breaks
People often track dates in isolated notes that ignore exact travel boundaries. A late arrival, an extra rail segment, or an overnight transfer can invalidate a hand-maintained count.
Use itinerary events as the source of truth
Presence logic works best when tied to real segment timestamps. STATUS keeps those movement events in one place and presents travel presence as a planning layer on top.
- One timeline, multiple segment types.
- Clear separation of upcoming and historical movement.
- Less duplicate data entry across tools.
Build a repeatable monthly review
Do a short monthly check instead of waiting for high-pressure moments. Review upcoming routes, verify recent changes, and correct missing segments before they become planning risk.
Operational habits that reduce mistakes
- Add each segment as soon as booking is confirmed.
- Validate date and timezone context after changes.
- Share the same trip view with collaborators so everyone uses the same dataset.
- Keep notes in the timeline system, not detached documents.
Travel presence should be a by-product of good timeline hygiene, not a separate manual project.
