Odds & ends: Fly cheaply to New York, low-cost holiday airfare sites, & travel apps for your iPhone

Among this weekends (Dec. 5-8, 2009) fare specials at Delta is a Chicago to New York trip (either Midway to La Guardia or OHare to Kennedy) for just $69 one-way. The catch: A Saturday (Dec. 5, 2009) departure is required, along with a Monday or Tuesday return. Round-trip purchase required.

Online resources make traveling easier
Two articles published this week make your travel life easier or they attempt to, anyway.

Yesterday, ABC News published Cheap Christmas Airfare: The 10 Best Web Sites. The essential to budget travel is to plan ahead. When it comes along to family trips, globetrotting, well-deserved trips and/or going to see new locations we have never been before, the truth of expense and budgeting is often in the back of our minds. Arranging and expending our travel budget wisely is a main concern for most families. Minimizing expending and fees, while still taking pleasure in your vacation to its fullest, is the key to confirmed accomplishment and fiscal obligation. Your pocketbook and family will thank you! The thought behind economizing money while vacationing is simple: Even if your personal finances is highly limited, you can still take a break and enjoy life! Simply put, life is just too short to never step out of the door or departing the homestead! Also recalling that while traveling, no matter whether on a price range or not, even the smallest of things can all add op to a large vacation or travel costs!. They compare several sites based on cost, flight options, and ease of use using five random itineraries. We conducted a similar search on both domestic and international fares, although not geared toward holiday travel.

For all you iPhanatics out there, The Economic Times published a write up of the best travel-related iPhone apps. On the list; audio guides, hiking and biking maps, cheap international calling options, restroom finders and more.
