Please note the following constraints:
- The difference between arrival and departure days cannot be larger than 31, otherwise it would result in an error
- You must choose between 1 and 4 destinations, and specify what is the minimum number of days you want to spend on each one in the corresponding box. Failure to do this will result in an error.
- Please take note that for longer inputs (4 destinations and 10+ days) the program might take about a minute to fetch all the information from the API.
