MSN Travel 3.1.4.495
For those who like to take care of such details and see to it that there are as few loose ends as possible on their trips, a utility like MSN Travel can save the day.
Stylish and very functional interface
With a professional and in the same time appealing look, this app guides you every step of the way in vacation planning. The well organized layout and high quality pictures of remote places you might want to visit are just a few of the advantages offered by the application.
The smooth navigation you will experience throughout the app is very seldom affected by a slightly longer wait time for loading the information, usually from the search module.
Get details about interesting places, make reservations and find the best flight to get you there
MSN Travel is well prepared insofar as the information you might need about certain places and ways to get there is concerned. Nonetheless, there are many destinations currently not included in the database.
With regard to the means of arriving at the destination, the app is focusing exclusively on airways and manages to provide a great deal of details, from finding the cheapest flights to checking the flight status in real time.
Booking a room at a hotel is an easy job, as this application can look for vacancies at all the hotels in the area you want to travel to and offers a varied choice based on price, class ratings, proximity to the location you specified and also popularity.
The flight tracking feature, the detailed hotel and flight searches are some of the strong points, but, unfortunately, other means of transportation are altogether overlooked.
