Focused interactive planning
Choose one tool for the part of the trip you want to work on.
These tools help you work something out, not just read about it. Start with the question you have now, use one tool, and stop when you have the next useful action.
Start with the Free Mini-Check. If you already have a reasonably defined trip and want to see how several pressures may be adding up, use the Trip Load Scan.
Start here when the whole trip needs a first look.
Mini-Check and Trip Load Scan are the main TBL assessment tools. Choose between them by how much you already know about the trip.
I am not sure what needs attention
What should I look at first?
Answer six questions about one trip or trip idea and get a plan signal showing what needs attention first, what to protect and one useful next step.
Use when: something about the trip feels difficult or uncertain, but you are not yet sure where the main pressure sits.
You get: a quick on-screen result. No login or email is required before the result.
Start the Free Mini-CheckI already know the trip reasonably well
What is adding up across this trip?
Look across travel day, movement, sensory load, schedule, accommodation, responsibilities, recovery and flexibility to see which pressures are connected.
Use when: you already know enough about the route, timing, stay or itinerary to look at the trip as a whole.
You get: a clearer pressure pattern and practical priorities for what to protect, reduce, verify or keep optional.
Start the Trip Load ScanAlready know which part of the trip you want to work on?
Use one of these narrower tools when the question is already clear.
Make a trip decision
Should I go, modify or postpone?
Compare the current version of the trip with the changes available to you, then decide whether to keep it, modify it or come back to it later.
Use when: the trip still matters, but the current plan may leave too little room for rest, change or recovery.
You get: a clearer decision about whether the current plan stays, changes or waits.
Use Go / Modify / PostponeReduce travel-day load
How can I make one demanding travel day easier?
Break the day into stages and decide what will help at each point, what needs checking and what you will do if the day becomes harder than expected.
Use when: queues, transfers, waiting, boarding, luggage, arrival or the first evening are the main concern.
You get: a simple travel-day plan with practical actions and a fallback.
