FAQ
Common questions about Pivot/Hop Simulator
Does it factor in booked travel?
Booked travel is part of the signed-in calculation, so the pivot is judged against the trips already in the plan.
Will it recommend switching for small differences?
The full product weighs effort, cost and status outcome, not just a marginal points advantage.
