Airbnb:

Book unique homes and experiences all over the world.

AutoSlash:

The easiest way to save on Rental Cars. Either book a rental car directly through AutoSlash or provide them with the reservation information of a rental car you’ve booked elsewhere and they’ll try to find you a better price. There is no cost for their service ever and I use their site for every rental car I book.

AwardWallet:

The single most important tool that I use every single day, AwardWallet keeps track of the over hundreds of loyalty accounts that I manage in one place. Without it, I’d have no clue who has what points and if they’re posting in a proper timeframe.

SeatGuru:

It drives me nuts that Delta has 11 different configurations of their Boeing 757 aircraft, but SeatGuru allows me to identify which seats are the best and which to avoid.

ExpertFlyer Seat Alerts:

Can’t get the seat you want because it is already taken? Or perhaps only middle seats are left? When this happens I use ExpertFlyer to select “no seat” and set an alert for when a seat opens up. When the alert arrives I change my seat and end up exactly where I want.

AwardMapper:

Is prettier but doesn’t compare prices in points to cash, or search a real inventory.

AwardAce:

Airline award charts are a nasty mess to look through and when trying to identify what are the best miles to use, this site provide you the data you want. How many miles does it cost to go from point A to point B in each program? This site all answer this question and help steer you in the direction to get the most from each mile.

Couchsurfing:

An incredible community that allows strangers to connect. All Couchsurfing hosts host travelers for free.

Sleeping in Airports:

The ultimate guide to sleeping in airports.

FlightStats:

Very useful tool for checking Airport and Airline on-time statistics, with ratings for specific legs to/from specific airports. Know what to expect.

Urban Rail:

Comprehensive international resource site with Metro maps for major city’s subway systems.

Megabus:

UK/North America centered discount Bus line.

The Float Plan:

Site dedicated to connecting crew and volunteers.

Trip Films:

A great resource for finding (or sharing) travel videos.

TripIt:

Centralize all of your travel plans in one easy to manage place while tracking past trips and friend’s activity.

WikiTravel:
