Frequently Asked Questions
Is my checklist progress saved anywhere?
Only in your own browser, using local storage — nothing is sent to FlightLogic or stored on our servers. If you clear your browser data or switch devices, your progress will reset.
What counts as "trip-ready"?
Ticking all 14 items across documents, health, money & insurance, logistics, and knowing your rights gets you to 100% and a "Trip ready!" verdict. Not every item applies to every trip — for example GHIC only matters for EU travel — so skip anything genuinely irrelevant to your destination.
How far ahead of my trip should I complete this?
Start 6–8 weeks out for passport renewal and vaccination checks, since both can take time. Insurance should be bought as soon as you book (for cancellation cover), and logistics items like parking and check-in are best done in the final week or two.
