Bali, Hatyai, and New York Lead Diverse Trip Plans as 139 Itineraries Go Live in 24 Hours

Published January 29, 2026

Travelers on Plantrip.io mapped out 139 new itineraries in the past 24 hours (January 29, 2026), with Southeast Asia beach escapes, cultural city breaks, and family-friendly adventures topping plans. Bali emerged as a standout, while Thailand’s Hatyai, New York City, Spain’s coastal road trips, and India’s Gujarat and Kerala circuits showed strong interest across budgets and travel styles.

Bali bookings are prominent, including multiple 6–7 night plans for couples at the end of February with stated budgets and clubbing nights. Thailand planning features both Bangkok and a cluster of short Hatyai trips—often framed as 3 days/1 night with a 10:30 a.m. arrival and Muslim-friendly considerations—signaling quick cross-border getaways. A separate five-day family plan for Thailand emphasizes child-friendly activities and expenses, underscoring family travel demand.

City breaks and culture-forward itineraries span North America and Europe. New York City plans center on a Wall Street base and classic highlights—Central Park, AMNH, Broadway, the High Line, Top of the Rock, Times Square, sunrise on the Brooklyn Bridge—and detailed food stops, including gluten-free bakeries, cannoli in Little Italy, and a nod to “Central Perk” coffee. Canada interest surfaces with Vancouver, while Montreal–Québec City split itineraries target late May. In Europe, users are plotting Lisbon-to-Barcelona-to-Madrid drives, nine-day London-included Europe swings, and detailed Germany–Switzerland routes focused on Reformation history.

India itineraries are active and varied. Gujarat’s six-day spiritual circuits link Dwarka, Somnath, Diu, Sasan Gir, and Junagadh with temple visits, coastal sunsets, and a lion safari. Kerala plans span Munnar, Wayanad, Alleppey, and Thiruvananthapuram with nature parks, tea estates, and backwaters, including vegetarian-friendly routes. Short breaks include Mumbai day plans, Surat food-and-shopping crawls (ponk vada, undhiyu, ghari, iconic bakeries), a Lucknow–Agra couple’s getaway, and heritage swings through Badami, Aihole, and Pattadakal. Coastal Karnataka micro-itineraries bundle Gokarna, Honnavar, Murdeshwar, and Jog Falls.

Further afield, planners are building week-long Puerto Rico trips with bioluminescent bay excursions and a family gathering in Adjuntas, Peru circuits combining Machu Picchu, Lake Titicaca, Rainbow Mountain, Nazca Lines, and the Amazon, and Kenya safaris spanning Nairobi, Ol Pejeta, Lake Naivasha, and the Maasai Mara for mixed-age groups. Japan itineraries cluster Tokyo–Kyoto–Osaka with pop culture shopping streets, temple visits, food stops, Universal Studios, and kimono rentals, while Australia’s Kangaroo Island features lighthouse tours, Remarkable Rocks, Admiral’s Arch, Seal Bay, and little penguin nights from a Baudin Beach base.

Short-haul shopping-and-iftar plans also trend, including Batam with ferry routes from Johor’s Puteri Harbour/Berjaya Waterfront timed for Ramadan. Closer-to-home escapes note Goa from Pune, Pawna Lake camping near Lonavala, and quick city samplers like Santa Monica and Philadelphia wedding weekends. The spread of trips—spanning beaches, heritage, wildlife, and food—highlights how travelers this week are prioritizing tightly planned, experience-rich itineraries across budgets and group types.
