# TODO

Open items before and during the trip. Tick and date when done.

## Before departure (Sep 19/20)

- [ ] **Buy the US$250 nonresident annual pass** — digital, on
  [recreation.gov](https://www.recreation.gov/pass/annual), before the Sep 22
  Yosemite entrance. One pass admits the whole car at Yosemite and
  Sequoia/Kings Canyon and waives the US$100/person nonresident surcharge.
  Without it: ~US$435 per park, US$870 total. Pass holder must be in the
  car with photo ID at every gate.
- [ ] **KT: complete the LA DTLA online check-in form** —
  [Hostaway portal](https://guest-portal.hostaway.com/65596088/dxYlP4ov/check-in).
  Entry code is activated only after it's submitted.
- [ ] **MS: assign Air Canada seats** for the YVR ↔ SFO flights.
  See [`flights-ms.md`](bookings/transport/flights-ms.md).
- [ ] **MS: move today's SIXT pickup to 2:30 PM PDT now** in the app, or contact SIXT —
  booking `9739014160`; the current 60-minute courtesy window ends at 2:00 PM PDT.
- [ ] **LK: confirm Budget LAX pickup/return location and price** —
  itinerary `73544810702403`. Hertz cancellation refund also TBC.
- [ ] **Brand Plaza Glendale** room, price and payment TBC.
- [ ] **Oct 3 overnight stop** on the drive back to SFO — not yet chosen.

## Money

- [ ] **Watch Visa 3924 for the US$228.43 Gilmore Cabin refund** after the
  Sep 16 date change. Then update the payment row in
  [`cabin-sequoia-miramonte.md`](bookings/stays/cabin-sequoia-miramonte.md).

## During the trip

- [ ] **Sep 23: screenshot the Miramonte door code** while there's signal —
  it arrives 24 h before the Sep 24 check-in; the cabin has no service.
- [ ] **Sep 22: save the Yosemite door code 0517 and wifi offline** before
  leaving cell coverage.
