From my understanding, journey is more like un trayecto in Spanish. Just a pompous word that's rarely used. You will almost never hear a native speaker of English talk about going on a journey anywhere.

Not at all, and it is more or less used in the same way it is used in English, and then some.

That may be the case in AmE, but certainly not BrE. I have had a direct comparison here. After a flight between two countries, I have heard an American stewardess say over the intercom "We hope you have had a good trip". I have also heard an English stewardess after a similar flight say "We hope that you have had a pleasant journey". I know which one I prefer.

I don't think "trayecto" is any pompous or rarely used. Quite the contrary.
Estuvo lloviendo durante todo el trayecto. Supe que la autopista tiene un tramo en construcción: ¿Qué tal está esa parte del trayecto? Podemos parar en el trayecto, para comprar agua y refrescos.

We can stop during the trip.
We can do a stop during the route. Those are my ideas about this thread.
