Expedition vs Notion + glue.
A Notion-based ops doc plus Stripe links plus Mailchimp lists is a real working setup — until it isn't.
If you love building tools as much as you love running trips and you have time to maintain the glue, a Notion + Stripe + Mailchimp stack can work. It's flexible.
If the time you spend in Notion is time you'd rather spend on water or on the mountain, you want the operator-shaped primitives baked in: capacity caps, host arrangements, multi-currency settlement, automatic guest portal.
