About Travel & Places
Travel & Places gathers 173 symbols for vehicles, buildings, landmarks and scenery. One symbol can stand for a city, a mode of transport or an entire itinerary, which is why this group is used heavily in trip planning and arrival updates.
What you will find in this group
Transport entries cover road, rail, air and water vehicles, from a bicycle to an airplane. Place entries cover buildings, hotels, landmarks and generic scenery such as beaches, mountains and city views.
A few entries are symbolic rather than literal. A landmark is often used to mean the city around it, and readers understand it that way.
How these emoji are used
In trip planning, a short row of symbols can replace a full sentence: a plane, a hotel and a landmark say where you are going, where you are staying and what you plan to see.
Transport symbols are convenient for movement updates. They tell the reader how you are traveling without a status message.
Landmarks and geography
Landmark entries are specific drawings with a fixed Unicode name. Using one to represent a wider region is common and usually understood, but the literal meaning is the building itself.
For an exact location, pair the symbol with the place name. Symbols are good for setting the scene, not for giving an address.
Cross-platform notes
Vehicle and building artwork is fairly consistent across platforms, more so than faces or food, so the reading rarely changes between devices.
Some of the newer entries are missing on older systems. If a message has to be readable everywhere, keep the place name in text.
Copying emoji from this page
Every one of the 173 symbols in Travel & Places supports emoji copy and paste. Nothing is rendered as an image, so what you copy keeps the same code point on iOS, Android, Windows, macOS and the web.
On a phone the system keyboard is often the fastest route, but a browser tab is easier when you want a specific variant — skin tone, gender or hair color — that the keyboard buries three taps deep.
