Just in time for the holidays, TripIt, a new online travel assistant that organizes trips, released new features that simplify the aftermath of booking travel online.
Travelers simply forward their travel confirmation emails to [email protected] and TripIt automatically builds a master online itinerary. Each personalized itinerary features the trip details, confirmation numbers, locations, weather, maps, city guides, OpenTable restaurant reservations and more. TripIt is accessible from any PC as well as mobile phones. And, TripIt is also a community for friends, family and associates to share travel plans with each other. Travelers can easily choose who and what they share with their contacts.
TripIt now syncs itineraries with any personal calendar that supports iCal, including Google Calendar, Outlook 2007, Plaxo, and others. It eliminates the need for travelers to manually update their calendars with flights, hotels, rental cars, restaurant reservations, and other important details, and keeps everything up to date, even if their plans change.
