  6. Click if you haven't already. If you started by selecting your destinations first (i.e. by clicking a spot on the map or searching for a destination when you first opened the map), click the round "Directions" button and pick a starting location. You'll need to be in "Directions" mode with both a starting location and a destination before you can add multiple stops.

    • Make sure that you have both a starting location and a destination set, or the "+" will not appear.
    • If you don't see the "+" button, you may need to close "Route options." You may also have the wrong travel method selected, as airplanes and transit do not support multiple destinations.
  8. Add your second destination. After clicking the "+" button, enter in your second destination like you did the first. You'll see your route adjust so that you're taken to your second destination after reaching the first.
