Every trip in Stopover is a list of legs. A leg is one piece of your journey. Knowing the four types helps the rest of the app make sense.
The four leg types
✈️ Flight A flight from one airport to another on a specific date. Can be a single segment or part of a multi-segment booking (see Linking flights, below).
🏨 Stay A hotel or other accommodation in a single city. You set the check-in date and how many nights. The check-out is calculated automatically.
🚂 Ground Anything overland: trains, buses, ferries, or a drive. You pick the mode when you add the leg, and the icon updates to match.
🔁 Layover A short connection between two flights where you're not really "visiting" the city — just passing through. Marking it as a layover (instead of a stay) keeps it out of your activities and budget summaries.
Adding a leg
At the bottom of the Overview tab, a row of small buttons handles all four types: + flight, + ground, + stay, + layover. Click whichever you want, fill in the basics (cities, dates), and confirm. The detail panel opens so you can fill in the rest.
You can also insert a leg between two existing legs by hovering between them — the same row of buttons appears inline so you can add at exactly the right spot.
Reordering legs
Each leg has up/down arrows. The map and timeline always re-draw to match the order. If you accidentally put a flight before the stay it belongs after, just bump it down one slot.
Linking flights
Real-world flights often come as a single booking with two or three segments. To group them, add each segment as its own flight leg back-to-back, then open the first flight and click Link with next flight in its booking row. Linked flights:
- Share a single price and confirmation number on the Overview.
- Show as a connected group on the map.
- Stay linked when you reorder them.
If a booking has three or more segments, keep clicking Link with next flight down the chain until they're all grouped together. To unlink, open any leg in the group and choose Unlink.
Deleting a leg
Open the leg's menu and choose Delete. If the leg has linked flights, you'll be asked whether to delete the whole group or just that segment. Stopover confirms before deleting anything.
