Going on vacation any time soon? While on the go, you’ll need access to certain sites, whether to check your flight’s status or get tips on where to eat.

Instead, before you leave, add these sites to your favorites in Opera’s Speed Dial for fast and easy access on the go.

Track your flights

Organize your trip

TripIt creates a master itinerary for your trip, including all your reservations, contact info, directions and more, in one spot. You can sync with your calendar, share the details with fellow travelers and access all this information from any device. If you opt for the Pro version, TripIt will send you instant alerts for flight delays, cancellations and gate changes. Plus, it will offer you alternative flights.

Find what you need when you get there

Looking for kayak rentals around your destination? Or, do you need a pharmacy but don’t know where’s the nearest one? Yelp can help. 🙂 Yelp is the best way to find local businesses and services, wherever you are. The site provides contact information as well as directions to get where you need to go and valuable reviews from others who’ve been there.

Get tips on the best things to do

Get personalized suggestions from other travelers for thousands of destinations around the world with Triposo. From day-trips to local cuisine and hidden gems, you’ll get lots of ideas to explore your destination and make the most of your time there. You can also download the app to access all this content and maps offline.

Sleep soundly

Explore all sorts of accommodations and make a reservation in the blink of an eye with Booking.com. You can find special deals at top-rated hotels and get reviews relevant to you, depending if you are traveling with friends, family or on a business trip.

Did you know you can add as many sites as you want to your favorites in Opera’s Speed Dial? Save other local sites – like museums you want to visit or local train schedules – and group them in folders by topic. With Opera Mini, you can even save these sites for offline use so you don’t always depend on an internet connection. 🙂
