A travel coordination system coordinates travel between a client and a provider to a destination. The client and provider meet at a pickup location and the provider transports the client (or an item or object from the client) to the destination. The travel coordination system automatically suggests a pickup location for the trip by determining location data points corresponding to prior trips of clients. Location data points near the client's location are determined by distance or by region and scored to determine a pickup location that improves the estimated pickup time and/or estimated time to arrive at the destination.
