Score: 4/5
Flight Track can be struck dumb by certain
flights – although this may be due to a reliance on updates from airlines and
airports – but most of the time, it delivers invaluable at-a-glance flight info
straight to your smartphone. Also syncs with SeatGuru and, with a $ 4.69 upgrade, Triplt.

What do we like? Feeling smug. When do we
like it? Well, most of the time. How do we do it? By being Forewarned about
travel essentials such as hotels and restaurants by TripAdvisor, which has the
biggest user-review database on the planet. The WP7 app looks great.

Packing your suitcase was fine, but now
you’re sitting on a carry-on case trying to close it as reams of e-tickers, car
hire and hotel reservations spill out Triplt bundles it together for you –
forwards booking emails to your account and they’ll pop up in the app. Work
spookily well.
