Mint allows you to organise your finances, keep track on
your travel budget and watch your expenses throughout
the trip. The best part is that it is 100% safe and secure
because of the fact that it is a read-only service. No real
transactions actually take place. It is simply for viewing
purposes.
(Free, for iOS, Android)
Travelling abroad is all about getting to the airport and boarding
the plane. GateGuru helps you manage everything in between. App
navigation is simple. You can get direct access to the AirportCard
where a list of the closest airports is available from the Home screen.
Just enter your itinerary and GateGuru will connect the dots for you.
There is information on airport food and amenities customised to
your arrival and departure terminal, airport weather and airport maps
and tips, which are useful if you are not familiar with the airport.
(Free, for iOS, Android and Windows)
We all have been there before. Travelling long distances strapped in
the middle seat is not exactly how you want to to start your much-
needed vacation. Seat Alerts monitors the available seats right up
until the flight’s departure. As soon as a window or an aisle seat
becomes available, the app will alert you so that you can change your
seat upon receiving the notification. All you have to do is to get in
touch with the airline that you have booked your ticket with.
(Free
for a single alert, for iOS and Android)
