Traveling is great fun, but if you're going on endless business trips the schedules, admin and expense reports can build up alarmingly quickly.

Take the stress out of your next trip with seasoned travel management app TripIt.

No trip ups

TripIt is like having an executive assistant and travel agent rolled into one. 

Once you create an account TripIt synchs with your calendar and alerts you about travel plans including airline tickets, hotel reservations, car rentals and more.

Itinerary

The thing we like about TripIt is how it uses all your travel information to create a custom travel itinerary.

Simply send your confirmation emails from your airline, car rental company and hotel and TripIt does the rest.

From here you have every aspect of your journey available in one location: no more searching emails for flight numbers, hotel addresses and contact phone numbers.

TripIt even includes maps with key information like meeting points and hotels.

Linking up

TripIt can also link up with other services such as FlightTrack, which gives you up-to-date flight information and gate changes.

While TripIt for Teams allows you to create custom travel itineraries for colleagues, controlled from a central dashboard so everyone stays in synch.

TripIt is available in a free or paid version.
