Bing Travel already works in Australia
Posted Saturday, June 26, 2010 at 7:33 pm by Jason Cartwright
While Bing in the US is getting all kind of fancy features, Bing internationally has been slow to get the same feature set. One of the most useful features we miss out on in Australia is Bing Travel. While it hasn’t officially launched here, there’s some great news down under – it already works !
With a few events coming up shortly, booking flights is on the agenda, on the off chance that it’d work, I tried Bing Travel. With all it’s ajaxy goodness, searching for flights allows for real-time filtering to find the best deal. Sorting is available for a number of criteria, including Price, Airline, Leave/Arrive times, number of stops and duration.
To try it for yourself, head on over to http://travel.bing.com
New blog launched – travelAU
Posted Tuesday, March 2, 2010 at 6:55 am by Jason Cartwright
Yesterday I launched a new blog called travelAU. The new site is aimed at providing a real-life run down of all things travel. From the initial planning including selecting your destination, to getting passports, shots at the doctor, currency exchange and more.
The main motivation for the blog in my upcoming trip to US in April. With most of the content not exactly relevant to the tech-focus of techAU, I thought it best to dedicate an entirely new blog to the effort.
If your into travelling or considering travelling, please check it out @ http://travelAU.wordpress.com there’ll be plenty of useful tips. tricks and of course photos there. Enjoy!
