DevDays 2009 – iPhone Developer Workshop
The TravelManager team in Ireland attended “DevDays 2009″ to meet with other iPhone developers as well as Apple Engineers. It was a great opportunity to meet with fellow iPhone developers and we’ve even got a few people interested in developing on the TravelManager API’s!! Everyone really liked the look of our iPhone App so we thought we’d share it a few pics with you: ***Main Menu in TM App ***Open Quotes in TM App One developer in particular has created an iPhone App for Dublin Bus timetables so that was really interesting for us to meet someone providing solutions for the same industry. More on that in the next few weeks as we start to finalize on iPhone apps (yes we’re going to have more than 1 App)

Consigli per una vacanza sicura
“Sono sempre più numerose le segnalazioni dei disservizi subiti dai consumatori nel settore turismo: per evitare che la vacanza si trasformi in un’odissea è allora bene seguire qualche accorgimento”.

Adventures are About Choice
When you chose this type of vacation, it’s all about choice. First of all you must choose your destination. Perhaps you have read about a place in school and you have always thought that you wanted to go there and explore and experience everything that you read about in a book. Perhaps you saw a documentary on TV about a faraway place and you thought that you would like to go there to experience more about this destination. First of all, to start planning your trip, you have to choose the destination or at least narrow it down to a few places that you would like to go.
