TripCase Shut Down: What Happened and the Best Replacement Apps in 2026

Quick answer: TripCase no longer exists. Sabre switched the app off on April 1, 2025, kept a download-only window open until June 30, 2025, and said it would then delete TripCase trip data. There is nothing left to sign in to, and old trips can't be recovered from TripCase. For the closest like-for-like replacement (forwarding confirmation emails for free), use TripIt. If you mainly want reminders before refundable bookings stop being free to cancel, plus documents and expenses kept with the trip, try TripCache.

The 5 best TripCase replacements at a glance

Prices and plans were checked on each official website and app-store listing on October 5, 2026.

If your employer or travel agency set TripCase up for you, ask them first. TripIt says companies that use SAP Concur may give employees TripIt Pro at no cost.

What happened to TripCase?

TripCase was Sabre's free itinerary app. Travel agencies and airlines used it to send trips to travelers, and individuals forwarded their own confirmations to it.

• April 1, 2025: Sabre shut down the TripCase app worldwide and pulled it from the app stores.
• April 1 to June 30, 2025: former users could sign in on the website only to download their trip information.
• After June 30, 2025: Sabre said it would delete TripCase trip and traveler data as part of the shutdown.
• Today: tripcase.com forwards to Sabre's website. There is no TripCase account to sign in to and no export to download.

Sabre described the decision as a strategic shift to other products. It didn't hand TripCase users to a named successor, so every former user has to choose a replacement and rebuild upcoming trips.

Can I still recover my TripCase trips?

Not from TripCase. If you didn't download your trips before June 30, 2025, rebuild what you still need from the original sources:

• Confirmation emails. Search your inbox and archive for the airline, hotel or destination, plus words like "booking confirmed", "reservation", "itinerary", "e-ticket" and "confirmation number".
• Airline and hotel accounts. Loyalty accounts usually list upcoming reservations and recent stays or flights.
• Your travel agency or company travel desk. If an agency booked the trip, ask it to resend the itinerary or passenger receipt.
• Your calendar. Events created by TripCase or a booking site help you find dates, but check the times against the airline.
• Card statements and expense reports. Useful for rebuilding business trips you still need to claim.

Be wary of any service that claims it can restore deleted TripCase data, and never upload your passport or payment details to an unfamiliar "migration" tool.

If an agency or airline sent you a TripCase itinerary

Some travelers only knew TripCase because their agency or airline sent trips through it. To check a booking now, use the airline's "manage booking" page with your booking reference (PNR) and last name, or ask the agency that booked it for a fresh itinerary.

Which replacement fits the way you used TripCase?

TripCase did several jobs at once. Pick the replacement by the job you miss most.

1. TripIt: the closest free replacement

TripIt works the way most TripCase users expect: forward a confirmation to plans@tripit.com and it builds the itinerary. TripIt's free plan includes email forwarding, inbox sync, calendar sync, plan sharing and 3 document uploads per trip.

TripIt Pro costs $49 a year on tripit.com after a 30-day free trial. It adds real-time flight alerts, check-in reminders, alternate flights, gate and baggage-claim information, fare and seat trackers, and 25 documents per trip. Our TripIt Pro pricing breakdown has the full free vs Pro list.

Choose TripIt if you want free email forwarding from a long-established product.

2. Tripsy: best for iPhone and Mac users

Tripsy is a polished itinerary app for iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple Watch. You can forward booking emails to it, keep documents and notes with each trip, and track expenses in more than one currency. It is free to download, and some features need Tripsy Pro.

Tripsy built a TripCase importer before the shutdown, but it needed TripCase to still be running, so it can't help now. Tripsy has no native Android app yet; Android users can only view their itineraries in a browser.

Choose Tripsy if everyone on the trip uses Apple devices.

3. TripCache: best for deadlines, documents and expenses

TripCache is built for the work after you book. It isn't a copy of TripCase: it puts more weight on refundable-booking deadlines, travel documents and what a trip costs.

Free on Basic:

• Trips with flights, hotels, rental cars, trains, buses, parking, events, restaurants, tours and meetings.
• Cancellation-deadline reminders 7 days, 2 days, 1 day or on the day a refundable booking's free cancellation ends.
• Check-in reminders 48 hours and 24 hours before departure, plus a shortcut that copies your booking reference and opens the airline's website.
• Boarding-pass barcode scanning to add or update a flight.
• A document vault for passports, visas, tickets, boarding passes, insurance and hotel files, with an optional PIN and Face ID or fingerprint unlock.
• Expenses in 153 currencies with budgets by category, and CSV or PDF export, including a visa travel-history summary.
• CSV import of past flights, so you can rebuild your flight history from a spreadsheet.
• Offline access to your trips and cached documents.

Pro adds: forwarding confirmation emails (with attached PDFs and screenshots) to your own TripCache address to create drafts you review, with a monthly import allowance; live flight-status alerts for delays, gate changes and baggage belts; and Live Activities, the Dynamic Island and home-screen widgets on iPhone, with an ongoing notification and widget on Android.

One honest difference: TripCase and TripIt let you forward emails for free, but email import is a Pro feature in TripCache. If free forwarding is all you need, TripIt is the better match.

Choose TripCache if your bookings are refundable, you carry documents you need to find fast, or you track what trips cost. Get it on the App Store or Google Play, or compare Basic and Pro.

4. Flighty: best for flight tracking only

Flighty focuses on flights: live status, early delay alerts and a detailed flight history. Its free plan tracks flights, and Flighty Pro costs $59.99 a year. It runs on iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple Watch, with no Android app.

Flighty doesn't organize hotels, rental cars or other bookings, so most former TripCase users pair it with an itinerary app.

Choose Flighty if flights are the only part of the trip you need help with.

5. Wanderlog: best for planning places and routes

Wanderlog combines an itinerary with a map, so it is strongest before the trip, while you are still choosing where to go. It supports planning with friends, budgets and reservation import. Wanderlog Pro (from $39.99 a year) adds offline access, route optimization and automatic Gmail scanning.

Choose Wanderlog if you plan leisure trips with other people.

For business travelers: your company's travel tool

If your company booked travel through an agency, check whether it now uses a managed platform such as Navan or TravelPerk, or SAP Concur with TripIt. A company tool is usually the right replacement for agency-booked trips because it receives the bookings directly.

How to move to a new app in an afternoon

1. Rebuild upcoming trips first. Skip old trips unless you need them for expenses, tax or a visa application.
2. Forward or add each booking. Use email import where your app supports it, and add anything unusual by hand.
3. Check every local time. Overnight flights and time-zone changes are where rebuilt itineraries usually go wrong.
4. Record cancellation cutoffs. Hotel and rental-car "free cancellation until" dates are easy to lose when you switch apps. The free hotel cancellation deadline calculator works out the exact cutoff.
5. Add only the documents you need. Read the app's privacy policy and store disclosures before uploading identity documents.
6. Test notifications before travel day. Make sure check-in, flight and deadline reminders actually reach your phone.
7. Keep the originals. The airline, hotel or agency record stays the authority, not the app.

What to rebuild for each booking

• Flights: airline, flight number, date, local departure time, airports and booking reference.
• Hotels: property, address, check-in and check-out dates, confirmation number, payment status and the free-cancellation cutoff in the hotel's local time.
• Rental cars and transport: pickup and return place and time, confirmation number and cancellation terms.
• Tickets, tours and meetings: venue, start time, booking reference and the change or refund policy.

Rebuilding your trips in TripCache

Everything below is free on TripCache Basic except email import, which needs Pro.

1. Download TripCache from the App Store or Google Play.
2. Create the upcoming trip, then add each booking by hand or scan the barcode on a boarding pass to add the flight, both free. With Pro, you can forward the confirmation email instead; see how email-to-itinerary import works and review each imported draft before saving it.
3. Rebuild your flight history with the free CSV import. TripCache gives you a sample CSV template: fill it in with past flights from your confirmation emails, airline accounts or any TripCase download you saved, then upload it. There's no direct import of TripCase files, so the template is the way in.
4. Add cancellation reminders to refundable hotels, cars, tours and tickets. They're free, and the cancellation reminders page explains the timing options.
5. Check-in reminders are free too: TripCache sends a heads-up 48 hours before each flight and another alert at 24 hours, with a shortcut that copies your booking reference and opens the airline's website.
6. Add the documents you need to the vault and turn on the PIN lock.

TripCase FAQ

Is TripCase still working?

No. TripCase shut down on April 1, 2025. The app is gone from the app stores, and tripcase.com now forwards to Sabre's website.

Can I get my old TripCase trips back?

No. The download window closed on June 30, 2025, and Sabre said it would delete TripCase trip data after that. Rebuild upcoming trips from your confirmation emails and your airline, hotel or agency accounts.

What is the best free TripCase alternative?

TripIt is the closest free match because its free plan includes email forwarding. TripCache's free Basic plan is the better fit if you want cancellation-deadline reminders, check-in reminders, a document vault and expense exports without paying.

Can I import TripCase trips into TripIt, Tripsy or TripCache?

Not directly anymore. TripIt suggested printing TripCase itineraries to PDF and emailing them in, and Tripsy built a direct importer, but both needed TripCase to still be running. TripCache has no TripCase importer either, but its free CSV import accepts past flights you copy into its sample template.

Is TripCache the same as TripCase?

No. TripCache is an independent app with a similar name. It isn't made by Sabre and has no connection to TripCase.

Bottom line

TripCase is gone, and its data went with it. Rebuild upcoming trips from the original confirmations, then pick the replacement that matches how you travel: TripIt for free email forwarding, Tripsy for Apple-only households, Flighty for flight detail, Wanderlog for planning, and TripCache for deadlines, documents and trip costs.
