Going Travel App ($0)
Nastro begins planning upcoming travel as soon as the new year rolls around, so she frequently checks her favorite travel apps. "[Going sparks] my travel imagination by sending deals from my home airport and allowing me to watch specific destinations using price alerts," she shares.
Her hot tip is to keep eyes on summer flight deals while everyone else is scrambling for their winter trips. "I always tell people to book in the opposite season for a peak season trip to give themselves the best odds at snagging something great."
Nasto also recommends Flighty ($0) for when you're finally en-route to a destination. Flighty allows you to track your flight's progress and often provides updates faster than the airline apps do when delays occur. "Sometimes things happen when you travel, especially when it comes to Mother Nature. She doesn't care you're trying to make it home for the holidays!" Nastro says.
