Crew Changes - Add Travel
When you create a crew change, you need to add travel arrangements for each seafarer who is on or off-signing. Here’s how.
On the main Crew Changes page, click the date of the crew change you want to add travel for. Then click the port name in the Ports section or in the Overview column on the left. You will go here:
Go to the on- or off-signers section and check the box next to a seafarer’s name or a trip. This displays a blue bar at the top of the screen. Click the buttons on it to get confirmation from the seafarer, request flights from a travel agent, edit the trip and edit the dates:
Requesting confirmation sends a notification to the seafarer via Martide's app asking them to review and confirm the flights. When you request flights, the request will appear in your travel agent’s Martide account.
To add travel arrangements to the trip, click on a seafarer’s name in the left hand column. This will take you to their crew change profile page. Scroll down to the Travel section:
You will see the name of the port – this is the overall crew change trip and you need to add travel arrangements to it. To do so, click the 3 dots at the end of the row:
Here you can:
- Add local travel (taxi, train etc.)
- Manually add flights.
- Add a hotel.
- Delete the trip.
When you click Add Local Travel, you will see this:

When you click Add Flight Manually, you will see this:
Enter and select the relevant information, add another leg to the journey and attach any eTickets.
When you click Add Hotel, you will see this:
Enter and select the relevant information, including hotel address, check in and out dates, and room type.
Any travel or hotels that you add will then appear under the trip:
Check the box next to the trip or the seafarer and a blue bar will appear at the top of the screen where you can request their confirmation and/or edit the trip:
