Episode 39: When is your flight arriving?

Well, we are in the midst of the travel season and did you know that there are apps to help you on your travels? Explore the app stores and you will see several free and paid apps that will help you in your travels or help you pick up family arriving from abroad.

Try TripIt and GateGuru (free apps) when traveling to help you find your gate or the Starbucks in the airport. Picking up someone at the airport, there are several free and paid apps that will let you know the flight status. You can watch their plane travel across a map and see if there are any delays. Remember, pay attention to the arrival times. If you watch the estimated times on the map, they run about 3-4 minutes behind.

Are you a airport circler? Do you drive around and around the airport waiting for someone? Try the airport “Cell Phone Lot”. Park in the free “Cell Phone Lot” and wait for your party to call when they are heading out to the curb.

Here are my travel apps: Kayak, TripIt, United, Flight Tracker & iExit. Be safe on your travels,
