To get so irritated with DH and his irritating holiday planning?

Going to USA in September. We plan to drive from San Francisco to Monument Valley stopping off at Bridgeport, Death Valley, Las Vegas etc along the way.

So far we have the return flights to SF booked and that's it. DH insists on being in charge of the planning yet getting him to actually plan anything is a fucking nightmare. I've been searching hotels, airb&b etc and showing him and get the usual "yeah sounds nice". I have tried telling him that these places are booking up fast and get "yeah we need to start booking".

I've been getting so frustrated with nothing getting sorted!! Last night I sat him down and narrowed it down to a handful of airb&b properties - he was dead keen, kept saying how gorgeous they were etc ... got me to message the hosts ... said we'd book today.

So this afternoon had perfect opportunity as no kids here and both sat doing nothing - he wanted to go to sleep and said we'd do it tonight.

8.30pm I say "so, we going to book then as they're selling out fast" - he replies "we can't commit yet as we don't know how long we're spending in each place". I say "well we need to work that out then!" He replies "yeah we should do really". So again getting frustrated I say "so!! Shall we?" And he says "yeah, we do need to but I don't know yet what we're going to do". So I say "well what we going to do then??" He replies "well, there is nothing we can do"

Oh for fucks sake man wake up!! AIBU to sack him off and just plan and book the fucker without his input? Baring in mind he'll take great delight in pointing out anything that goes wrong as entirely my fault?

Would drive me nuts. I planned a tour of Europe a couple of years back. I checked the drive times and booked places on route. DH had some input ie I asked him, but he left it to me...works for us. He cannae be arsed with details.
