Day-before departure reminder for travellers
A pre-trip message the day before departure with reporting time, meeting point and the trip coordinator's number, plus a short packing check.
Reporting time: 5:30 am{{3}}
Meeting point: Terminal 1, Gate 4, Delhi airport{{4}}
Trip coordinator: Tenzin, 94190 22334{{5}}

It gives practical details for a trip the customer has already booked, which Meta treats as utility. Selling add-ons like insurance or extra excursions here would make it marketing.
Variables

When to use it
Send it to every traveller the afternoon before departure, for group tours and private packages alike. It is the message travellers screenshot and look at on the morning of the trip. Keep the coordinator's number in it so nobody has to scroll for it at the airport.
Best time to send. Between 3 and 6 pm the day before departure, so there is time to fix any problem.

Tips
- Make the reporting time earlier than the real deadline by 15 minutes for groups; someone is always late.
- Mention destination-specific items in a variation: warm layers for Ladakh, sunscreen for Goa.
- Kredoo can send this automatically the day before each departure date in your bookings.
