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…)
