How to say "itinerary" in Japanese

Choosing the right word
  • 道のりみちのりCommon
    nounIt really means the distance or course of a journey — the road traveled — so its 'itinerary' sense is secondary; for a planned trip schedule it is seldom the word you want.
    そこまでだいぶ道みちのりがあります。↗
    You have to walk a long way to get there.
  • 道筋みちすじCommon
    nounIt denotes a path or route — the line along which a road or plan runs — and is seldom the word for a planned travel schedule.
    鉄道てつどうの道筋みちすじを決きめるのは一体いったい何なんだろうか。↗
    What is it that determines the route a railway takes?
  • 旅程りょていCommon
    nounThe usual word for the travel sense: an itinerary as the planned route and schedule of a trip. Choose it when 'itinerary' means your travel plans as a whole.
  • 予定表よていひょうCommon
    nounFits when 'itinerary' means a written schedule or program of planned events — a day's timetable — rather than the route of a journey.
    予定表よていひょうを見みてみましょう。↗
    I'll check my schedule.
  • 行程こうていCommon
    nounThe itinerary of a trip viewed as its route or course of travel, including the distance covered; it suits travel planning where the journey's route is the focus.

Use 旅程 for a travel itinerary in general; 行程 for the route and stages of a journey; 予定表 for a written schedule of plans; 「道のり」 and 道筋 are really about roads and routes, not travel schedules.
