# Trip Planning

**Time point lines**

To begin a trip, mark a line with a **date** or **time** result as a "time point" (via the contextual menu on an answer, or press ⌘-T).

A time point might be the **start of a trip**, or the **end of a trip** (whatever is appropriate in your case).

Here are some examples of how Soulver can assist you in trip planning when using time points:

1. **A trip with a start date only**

Here we've marked the "2 July" line as a **time point** line.

Subsequent lines display the date intervals for each city we want to visit.

2. **A trip with an end date, or deadline**

Here we've marked the final line with "8:35am" as a **time point** line.

Previous lines will show date intervals relative to it, and we can see that we need to be up at 4:45am in order to make our flight.

3. **A trip with both start and end dates**

If you have both a start date, and an end date for your trip or project, Soulver can also help ensure the amount of time you have allocated meets your deadline.

<div align="left"><figure><img src="https://1915029247-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F-Lf0gWBnuB8M1SitWhyk%2Fuploads%2FmM7UmuhoI6wc1aFauoQo%2FScreenshot%202024-05-27%20at%206.45.17%E2%80%AFPM.png?alt=media&amp;token=9683f3c1-9d89-4612-974d-4aec9c6b15a5" alt="" width="375"><figcaption><p>A trip with both start and end dates</p></figcaption></figure></div>

Mark the start and end dates as **time point** lines and the end date line will display a warning (if necessary).
