About the AA Route Finder & Journey Planner
The AA Route Planner can help you find the best route to your destination before or during your trip. If you are on the road a lot for business, you will probably end up in cities where you do not know the streets and traffic situations.
The same applies of course if you go on holiday to an unknown city or region. With AA’s route planner, you can map out a route that will take you safely from A to B without being distracted by signposts and unexpected delays.
What benefits does the AA Route Planner offer you?
With the AA Route Planner you can easily plan your trip within seconds. After entering the place of departure and arrival including additional intermediate stops, you will immediately see which routes are available. Thanks to the clear map and the good description of how long you have to follow each part of the route, you can travel hassle-free.
In addition, you can set up the AA Route Planner to receive real-time notifications about delays, traffic jams and roadworks. This virtual co-driver can also show you where cark parks can be found along your route. Would you like to stay overnight or have a meal en route? Restaurants and lodging options can also be added to your route by the AA Route Planner.
The downside of the AA Route Planner
The AA Route Planner can be used on your computer at home to plan your trip in advance. The route planner is also suitable for use on your mobile phone, but an app is not available. This means that you have to re-enter the route you create on your computer if you use your phone to navigate along the way.
Safely use your AA Route Planner
Make sure you use the AA Route Planner in a safe way. Do you indeed use your phone to drive on the road with the help of this route planner? Then make sure that the phone is placed in a good holder and that you can view the screen well without having to take your gaze too much from the road in front of you. It is best to keep charging the phone during the journey so that you can use the AA Route Planner for the entire journey.
Do you want to know more about the route you are driving or do you want to change the route? Then first park your car in a parking lot or at a gas station. You can then make adjustments in peace without ending up in dangerous situations because you are distracted for too long while driving.
Is the AA Route Planner comparable to other route planners?
Most route planners have the same basic functions and present you with several routes to your destination. The difference between the various planners is often the extra functions. For example, the AA Route Planner can work fine for you if you only use it while driving.
Other route planners can also plan routes for you by bicycle or public transport. Every user has their preferences and if those of the AA Route Planner meet your needs then you have no reason to doubt its user-friendliness. If you are looking for a similar and free route finder, we highly recommend the RAC Route Planner.
