Here are a few apps that I use and highly recommend:
1) Kayak - This app, modeled after the popular web site Kayak.com, allows you to search many airlines and travel sites all at once. Right from your cell phone, you can easily determine the lowest airfare, hotels rates, and rental car rates. Cost: Free
2) Negotiator - This app, released by Priceline.com, also allows you to search multiple sites for the lowest airfare, hotel rates, and rental car rates. In addition, right from your cell phone, you can negotiate for the rate that you want - often resulting in savings of up to 80%i. Cost: Free
3) Southwest - This app, from Southwest Airlines, is the only app that allows you to book and manage Southwest flights. You can also manage your points if you're a Rapid Rewards member. Cost: Free
4) Flight Track Pro - This app helps you manage and organize your upcoming flights. It stores your confirmation numbers, allows you to view live flight maps, and will notify you in advance (via push notification) if your flight is delayed or canceled. Cost: $9.99
5) Trip It - This app, from TripIt.com, is similar to Flight Track Pro, but also allows you to manage and organize your hotel and rental car reservations. It also stores confirmation numbers, and allows you to easily share your itinerary with friends and family. Cost: Free
Thanks for the FlightTrack Pro mention! If you like FlightTrack Pro and TripIt's other features, you might try our new TripDeck app:

Great suggestions. I love my iPhone and travel quite a bit so these applications are just the thing I need to add to my homescreen. I'll play with a few and find a favorite although many of them can easily be used together.
ReplyDeleteThis is a very helpful list. Im an internet marketer and have been looking for apps like this. Just like in this site.
