Best Travel Apps for Vacations and Trips

Skyscanner

Flights, hotels, rental cars —Skyscanner has got you covered. The app searches for the most affordable and best options via its travel partners. Like Google Flights, you can see the cheapest dates to fly through a month-view calendar, and you can also get alarms when prices change. If you’re not sure wh ere exactly you want to go, Skyscanner offers a category that lets you explore “Top Deals” from your nearest airport, as well as a suggested list of destinations at affordable prices.

Hopper

If you’re really looking to get th e cheapest possible price for a plane ticket, you need to download Hopper. Like Skyscanner, you can look at the cheapest dates to fly via a month-view calendar, but Hopper prides itself on telling you when to buy your tickets via pushing notifications (通知). The company claims it can save you up to 40 percent on your next flight and that’s all done by analyzing and tracking billions of flights. The user interface (界面) is simple, and Hopper says you can book a flight in 60 seconds or less.

Airbnb

Whether legal in the city you’re visiting or not, Airbnb is a household name. The app undercuts hotels by offering far cheaper prices and a more authentic experience by staying with a local, or in his home. The app recently added a new feature called

Trips, which offers experiences to choose from during your stay —these are suggested events you can take part in with local guides. Eventually, the app will become an all-in-one travel app that lets you plan your day, book a car and more.
