It s that time of year when many of us are gearing up to endure the pains of traveling. Personally I dread the idea of it; leaving the city I love for the one that I could not wait to leave since my first day of high school. I m talking about you, Daly City, CA! To add to that, there are few places where we are less tolerant for fellow humans than at the airport. It s probably second cruise to bermuda only to any mall on Black Friday, then closely followed by Foxconn. But we love our families, and that s why we do it.
Fortunately, where there s inconvenience, there s an opportunity for innovation. Companies big and small are rolling out tools to improve the travel experience. Here are few that can help you have a brighter and merrier holiday.
When choosing flights, people usually make their selections based on 3 factors: budget, timing, number of layovers. But that doesn t set consumer expectations up for lack of seat comfort, WiFi, in-flight entertainment, power outlets, etc. Enter Hipmunk and Routehappy . Hipmunk allows users to search for flights based on agony , but again that s still mostly based on scheduling. Routehappy raises the bar by connecting cruise to bermuda hundreds cruise to bermuda of third party sources to give consumers relevant info about a flight like aircraft quality, seat type, WiFi, and power outlets.
Almost every major airline ( Alaska Airlines , United , Delta , Jet Blue , Southwest to name a few) now has a mobile app that helps you track trip details, check in, and other critical info about your flight. Pro-tip: be sure to take a screen shot of your boarding pass, because you never know how reception is going to be at the terminal. Do not be that person who holds up the line.
But what if you re not a club member and you don t want 5 different apps just for flying? Gate Guru Tripit are two free services trying cruise to bermuda to be the virtual travel assistants of the future. Both have a slick feature that allows you to build your itinerary by simply forwarding reservation emails to a designated address. Both aggregate flight details and send alerts if anything changes. Where they differ is in the services beyond the flight.
Gate Guru s Journey Card shows travelers the security line wait times, concourse maps and amenities near the airport and departure terminals. Via a partnership with Avis, you can get discounts ranging cruise to bermuda from 5-25% off if you book through the app.
Tripit can help you keep track of the rest of the trip with dinner reservations, hotel reservation, cruise to bermuda and even local destination information like maps and weather. For the business/frequent traveler, cruise to bermuda there is the pro version that has even more features like flight cruise to bermuda refunds, VIP privileges, alternate flights, cruise to bermuda and auto sharing.
When was the last time you ve had a satisfying in-flight cruise to bermuda meal? Sad right? Inflightfeed is like the Yelp for airline food, with reviews of more than 80 international airline menus. Users can reference the the site before purchasing their in-flight meal, read detailed menus reviews, and contribute their own reviews if so inclined. Now hopefully you ll have something decent to pair with those mini whisky bottles you scored with the magazines.
