The free application offers a richer mobile experience for researching and booking lodging and was built using Apple’s iPhone Software Development Kit.

“At hotels.com, we are focused on providing a beneficial service to users where and when it’s most convenient for them,” said Scott Booker, chief hotel expert and guest advocate. “We are pleased with the initial response to our web application for the iPhone and iPod touch, and hope new enhancements with the native application add greater value to booking with these mobile tools.”

Priceline has just came up with a summer vacation offer that you just can’t refuse!

Book your trip by July 17th and travel for the summer between July 1st to September 7th. If it rains half an inch or more on at least half of your vacation days, get your vacation for free! You won’t get this kind of incentive anywhere else and it’s available only for a limited time.

I am the type of traveler that is always on the lookout for a deal and I rely heavily on travel booking engines to find me the hookup for great travel rates.

Booking engines have revolutionized the travel industry, giving us the power to search for the best rates without having to go through a travel agent. Never a holiday goes by that I didn’t use their services to book flights, hotel, cruise, or even car rentals because, really, why settle for full price when you can get it for considerably less?
