5 Travel Apps for When You Book Your Trip Last Minute

'Tis the season of booking everything last minute! Here are five apps to hopefully help you when that situation arises.

Look, it happens! Especially this time of year when everything is so hectic. Travel is already so stressful as is, so it makes sense if you end up putting it off until last minute. In order to save you the headaches, here are five travel apps that can (hopefully) help you!

This is coming from someone who perpetually plans everything late, so feel free to use these throughout the year!

1
HOPPER
I rave about Hopper to all of my friends! This app is user-friendly, and tracks the best deals for you without you having to hawk it yourself. An added tip: use this for cheap flights, and transfer over to Google to see if you can get connecting flights for even cheaper!
2
EXPEDIA
In addition to its catchy jingle, Expedia does really come in handy. You can book your entire package (flight+hotel+car) all in one place, and sometimes even snag a better deal.
3
HOTELTONIGHT
This actually came in handy on a local level but can be used traveling as well. Hotel Tonight searches for all the last minute hotel deals whether its a week ahead or the THAT night.
4
GAS BUDDY
This one was one of my previous apps of the week for an obvious reason: Gas Buddy helps you find cheap gas based on your location! This needs no further explanation.
5
GTFO; GET THE FLIGHT OUT
This app just flew into my radar but it's created by Hopper! If you're looking to literally get the F out, then this is the app for you. You'll be able to check deals to get you on a flight by morning if you wish! GTFO!
