A colleague asked in our Mobility practice about relevant travel apps, and I started to go through the apps I use in my frequent travels. In the screenshots below you can see the apps I use the most. Below the screenshots I explain briefly what I use the apps for.
- WorldMate – keeps track of my flights and hotel bookings. I just forward confirmation emails to them and my account gets updated automatically. TripIt is another similar app and service.
- Booking.com – My favorite app for booking hotels. It’s fast and easy to use.
- FlightTrack – It tracks any flight, so you learn immediately if your flight is on time or delayed. It’s good to use also when you are picking someone up.
- Skanetrafik – Schedules for trains and buses in Skåne.
- Res i STHLM – Schedules for trains and buses in Stockholm.
- Taxi Skåne – Book taxis in Malmö and Lund (Calling an operator is so… 2011!)
- Taxi Sthlm – Book taxis in Stockholm (Calling an operator is so… 2011!)
- Flygbussarna – Schedules for shuttles to and from airports
- TripAdvisor – Online app for community driven information on sights, restaurants and hotels
- TripAdvisor City Guides – Offline support for community driven information on sights, restaurants and hotels (Used it a lot in Tokyo. Saved me a fortune in not having to roam…)
- WhiteGuide – Best restaurants in Sweden (found many “unknown” great places through this app!)
- JetSetter – Inspirational app for great places to go to, and very good deals to book.
- CPH Airport – Airport information for CPH
- Foodspotting – Community driven service and app for best places to eat at. Photos of the real deal.
- Bookatable – Restaurant booking
- Hotels.com – Competitor to Booking.com, good for cross cheing
- Skyscanner – Best app to find great flight deals
- Tågtavlan – Domestic train info in Sweden
- Trafikinfo – Current traffic status on the roads in Sweden
- Bärgning – Great app and service if you need assistance on the road (Yes, I have used this…)
