Ever since I started blogging, I have been taking more time to research and test out new travel apps. I have to admit, it was hard for me to branch out from the apps I am used to using. After taking some time to download some new apps on my iPhone, I discovered 5 new apps which can be useful for traveling.
1. TripIt: This app helps organize your travel schedule. After receiving an itinerary from any travel site, simply forward it on to TripIt. The app will then keep all aspects of your trip in one place. Worried about juggling flight times and meeting times? TripIt can help you stay on task whether you are traveling for business or leisure!
2. PackPoint: Do you struggle with exactly what to pack every time you leave home? PackPoint can help solve this problem. Put your travel location, date, and type of activities you will be doing into the app and a packing list will be generated for you! PackPoint also checks the weather of the city you are traveling to so you are able to receive a more accurate packing list! If there is an item not included in the list PackPoint gave, it can be added! PackPoint allows you to save packing lists for multiple trips if you are a frequent traveler.
3. Hotel Tonight: Need a hotel at the last minute? Hotel Tonight can help! Find hotel rooms for the evening of your stay or book a room for up to 7 days later. Hotel Tonight helps you find the best prices for hotel rooms and also displays amenities of each hotel!
4. Waze: Let's admit it, we all hate getting stuck in traffic! Waze is not only a navigation app but also an app which helps drivers avoid getting stuck in traffic. Users of the app are able to send updates to other users if there is an issue slowing down traffic. Find the best route to your destination by using Waze!
5. FlightAware: If you travel frequently for business or leisure, FlightAware can be beneficial to you! This app allows users to search for their flight so they can be prepared if there is a delay. If you are curious as to if a flight is en route, you can use the app to see which planes are currently in the air. Another great feature of the app is that it allows you to view airport information.
These five apps can be beneficial to all types of travelers. Be sure to check them out when planning your next trip! They can be downloaded for both iPhone and Android and are free of charge!
Bon Voyage!
