# RV guest message timeline

> Free editable planning resource. Adapt it to the real situation and current official requirements. It is not medical, legal, tax, financial, insurance, safety, or other professional advice.

## What this template is for

Plan booking, verification, arrival, handoff, check-in, return, incident, and closeout messages with one owner and action per stage.

Best use: Set up once per vehicle or channel, then customize booking-specific fields before sending.

## How to use it

1. Duplicate this file and name the working copy for the specific person, vehicle, household, trip, club, or account.
2. Define the decision, responsible owner, source evidence, and review date before filling optional details.
3. Mark an item as unknown when it has not been verified; do not turn an assumption into a fact.
4. Attach or link the trusted source document without storing passwords, full payment details, or unnecessary sensitive information.
5. Review the completed record with everyone responsible for the decision and preserve the revision history.
