Spanish term or phrase: invitación al viaje
This appears in a sort of checklist of information before leaving on a trip abroad. Invitation doesn't seem right here. Any suggestions?

Inviatación al viaje.
• Documentación de destino.
• Documentación de viaje.
• Información general del destino.
• Etiquetas de equipaje personalizadas.
• Plan de vuelos personalizado.
• Punto de encuentro para todos los participantes.
• Información para familiares.
• Seguro de Viaje.

Explanation:
Why can't we take this at face value? Sounds like an organised trip to me which required an invitation to take part. I assume you will need to show your invitation at the other end at some point. I also assume the term was one of the bullet points and not a sub-heading??

Explanation:
I get the impression that this may rather be the document issued by either the TO or the travel agent confirming the terms of your package and proof of booking. This is not usually translated into Castillian Spanish, although people soemtimes call it 'resguardo de la agencia'. I had never ssn it as 'invitación' myself!
