The holiday travel season is upon us and while your destination might involve family, food, and fun, getting there can be an exercise in frustration, futility, and frowning.
It doesn’t have to be awful. Well, that awful anyway. Here are four indispensable apps for making holiday travel less painful.
PackPoint: Leave nothing behind
If you hate packing, give PackPoint a try.
You tell the app how many days you’ll be gone, which types of activities you’ll be doing, how many fancy dinners you’ll be going to, and any other pertinent information, and it’ll automatically generate a handy packing list for you. It even checks the weather at your destination to ensure you bring the right outerwear.
The free version has plenty going for it, while the $3 premium version adds TripIt integration, synchronization with Evernote, the ability to create custom activities, and a handful of other goodies.
Grab: Mobile food ordering at the airport
Imagine the convenience and simplicity of a mobile takeout order except you’re at the airport and instead of driving to pick up your food, you simply amble a few gates down to grab it.
