WeatherPro
We Irish love to know all about the weather, so this app is perfect for the wanderers amongst us. It gives you everything – and is super handy when deciding what to pack.

Helps to sort out all those confirmation emails – for flights, hotels and car hire – into one handy itinerary. Sorted. Experiencing delays? Have a complaint? Or simply just frustrated? The AirHelp app is another good one.
HotelTonight
Not as organized as you wanted to be? Or maybe you like living on the edge a bit? The HotelTonight app lets you do just that – find a hotel that night. Roomer is also a handy app to have for accommodation.

One of the best foodie apps going, VizEat is one of our favourite apps and sees travellers connected with local hosts for a meal at their home. Kind of like Airbnb… but for food.
