Vote where to travel with friends

Six friends, one long weekend, and a group chat that has been arguing between Lisbon and Kraków since March. Put the destinations on a board, let everyone rank them, and book the flights before prices go up again.

What a board looks like

  • Lisbon
  • Kraków
  • Copenhagen
  • A cabin by a lake
  • Sicily
  • Wherever flights are cheapest

Each voter places 12, 10, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 and 1 points — every value once.

Why Eurovision-style points work here

A trip needs everyone on board. With a plain poll, the three people who want a beach can outvote the rest and half the group goes along unhappy. Ranked points find the destination that most people put near the top.

How to run it

  1. Create a board and add your options (photos optional).
  2. Share the link or QR code with your group.
  3. Everyone hands out their points from their own phone.
  4. Finish the voting to reveal the scoreboard to everyone.

Tips

  • Put the rough cost in the item title ("Lisbon — about €350") so people vote with the budget in mind.
  • Add a photo of each place. It matters more than you'd think.
  • Run a second board afterwards for the dates, then a third for the accommodation.
  • Invite-only mode keeps the vote to the people actually coming.

Questions

How do you choose a travel destination as a group?

Collect every suggestion first, then let everyone rank the full list privately. Ranking avoids the loudest person winning, and hidden results stop people from voting tactically.

What if there's a tie?

The scoreboard shows how many people voted for each place and which points they gave, so you can see which destination has the broadest support — or run a quick second vote between the top two.
