Trip planner
You can use the trip planner to create and save a trip, which you
can navigate later. This can be useful for planning a delivery
route, a vacation, or a road trip. You can edit a saved trip to
further customise it, including reordering locations, optimising
the order of stops, adding suggested attractions and adding
shaping points.
You can also use the trip planner to edit and save your active
route.

location and final destination can be the same.
