The digital age makes travel easier and more interactive than ever before. From an around-the-world cruise to a cross-country road trip, these apps make your journey simpler and even more memorable.
PackPoint Packing List Travel Companion
Overwhelmed by the packing? Always wait until the last minute? Overpack? Underpack? This app will keep you on track. Choose the destination, answer a few questions about your trip and it will create a checklist for you. It also cross-references the local weather during the days you’ll be there and allows you to share packing lists with other users.
This interactive augmented reality app allows you to hold your phone camera up to a view and then receive information about everything in that view. This is the sci-fi future the movies promised. Information includes restaurant menus, hotel availability, attraction hours and more.
Allow this sleek app to collate and organize your trip details for you. Simply email your various confirmations — flight, hotel, car — to their central email and it will send you a completed itinerary with confirmation numbers, gate numbers, local time zone information and more. The app also allows you to check-in, access maps and synchronize events on your calendar. It will even cross-reference your location with your contacts on LinkedIn for potential networking.
