“Anyone who has organized a vacation for a group of friends or family knows that getting everyone to agree on details can take the fun out of planning a trip,” said Andres Barry, president of JetBlue Travel Products. “As we continue to explore new solutions to reduce friction when traveling and build JetBlue’s reputation for great service, the Troupe app aims to simplify group travel planning and fits perfectly with our goal of developing new travel offerings that are changing the way people travel.”

With Troupe, travelers can suggest, vote, and comment on dates, destinations, activities, and stays, so everyone has a say in trip planning.

Users can manage RSVPs, create polls, share notes, add suggestions, and vote as a group to build consensus and set a plan before booking.
Bringing groups together to decide all the important details so one person doesn’t have to do it alone, Troupe offers travelers a hassle-free experience from start to finish:
- Make suggestions: Explore different destinations, stays and activities, then add them to your group’s journey together and keep track of everything in one easy-to-use app.
- Vote and comment: Vote on which suggestions best suit the group, build consensus, then finalize the details before booking.
- Collaborate and plan: Share links, videos, and notes with your group so you can see whatever you want to see once you reach your destination.
- A common space: Whether you’re preparing for a trip to Miami with friends or heading out of the office with co-workers, Troupe brings your group together to decide all the important details so you don’t have to do it alone.
- Less back and forth: Centralize your decision-making as a group so everyone can have a say without lengthy email threads. Then set deadlines, send updates, and nail a plan before you go. Getting everyone to agree has never been easier.
“There’s no denying that planning a vacation for a large group can be overwhelming, especially when everyone’s needs are different,” said Alexandra Zubko, CEO of Troupe. “Troupe was designed to make planning group travel fun, not stressful, and working with JetBlue Travel Products to bring this product to life was a breeze. We are proud to be the newest product from JetBlue Travel Products and excited to have the support of such a strong travel company whose mission aligns with our own: solving the key pain points travelers face.”
