Default Free Travel Itinerary Resources - Trip It
I stumbled onto a free resource for planning travel and coordinating itineraries. TripIt

In my "corporate career", my boss traveled probably 80% of the time. My number one frustration was to quickly combine all the various travel reservations, maps and information into something easy to handle, forward and archive. This looks like it will accomplish a lot of things I wanted then.

I currently do not have clients that I make travel arrangements for but perhaps someone with traveling clients will give it a whirl.

Here's blurb from the website:
TripIt is a personal travel assistant that automatically organizes all your travel plans.

TripIt is free and makes it easy to...

Quickly organize all your travel plans -- flights, hotels, cars, trains, cruises and more

Automatically get itineraries with all your plans, weather, maps, restaurants and more

Easily access your itineraries via paper, email, personal calendar or mobile device

Share your trips and see where you overlap with friends and colleagues
Hope this helps someone!

Looks like a cool site! I don't think I'll be doing any travel planning for my business, but I bet I'll use the site for myself, lol. Thanks!

Thanks for posting this. I've bookmarked just in case I'm doing travel for a client. I'm also going to show it to my husband who travels quite a bit for work.

I wish I had this tool over the past six years! Constantly booked travel for my boss and other executives, this would have been a huge help - I have signed up and will use it for future trips, thank you!
