Itinerary for the tour around the East (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

route

'itinerary' is the definition.
(I know that itinerary can be written as route)

'tour around the east' is the wordplay.
'around' indicates an anagram.
'the east' becomes 'e' (synonyms).
'tour' anagrammed gives 'rout'.
'rout'+'e'='ROUTE'

'for the' is the link.

(Other definitions for route that I've seen before include "Course taken" , "Regular journey" , "Course followed" , "' - - 66', Nat Cole song" , "Direction taken" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Independent.
