In one aspect, a method includes determining a zone around a destination; receiving location information from a tracking device that is traveling to the destination; based on the location information and the zone, determining whether the tracking device is within the zone to yield a determination; determining a remaining time for a user associated with the tracking device to reach the destination based on the determination; and providing an arrival alert to the destination regarding an arrival time of the user at the destination based on the remaining time and an arrival threshold.
