๐ก Slack Travel & Places Design Insight
Slack's travel emojis appear most frequently in out-of-office status messages and time zone indicators, where the airplane and house emojis have become standard visual shorthand for remote and traveling work states.
Slack's timezone display feature pairs with globe emojis to show team members' current times, and many distributed teams use travel emojis in their status to indicate which office or country they are currently working from.
Usage Tip
Using the house emoji in your Slack status universally signals remote work across most organizations, while the office building indicates in-person presence โ a convention so widespread it is essentially a workplace standard.
Cross-Platform Note
Travel emojis in Slack's custom status field render at a smaller size than in messages, and detailed building emojis can become unrecognizable at this size on some platforms, making simpler options more practical for statuses.
Fun Fact
After the shift to remote work in 2020, the house emoji became the most used travel-category emoji on Slack, surpassing the airplane for the first time in the platform's history and maintaining that position through 2024.
