New Free Travel Software Available for Immediate Download

BargainTravel.com has developed free desktop travel software for booking flights, making hotel reservations or reserving a car right from a computer's desktop with easy to use “widgets” for both Mac and PC.

Santa Rosa, CA January 12, 2006 -- BargainTravel.com, a leader in online travel since 2001 has developed three proprietary free standing travel applications known as “widgets”. These widgets reside anywhere on the users’ computer although most people keep them on their desktop as a quick reference.

Currently there are two types of widgets, those that work on Apple's Dashboard for OSX 10.4 and those that work via Yahoo!'s Widget Engine which work on both Windows computers and Macintosh computers. Bargaintravel.com offers both Yahoo! and Dashboard widgets as a free download.

When the search is completed, the user can purchase their tickets directly through the results page.
According to Stormy Knight, a partner at bargaintravel.com, “Our first and most popular widget is the AirCompare search widget featured on Apple's web site as a staff favorite. It features published fares as well as consolidator fares and is a quick and easy way to compare tens of thousand of flights from dozens of websites at one time with just one click”. According to Stormy, “When the search is completed, the user can purchase their tickets directly through the results page.”

Also available is a CarRentals widget, an easy one-click way to compare prices and availability on over 40 car rental companies in most cities and airports in the world. The user can specify any brand or class of car to include in their search. Anyone can search by either airport name or city name in any date range and include time of pickup and return, so that pricing correctly reflects the hours used.

Finally, the HotelSearch widget was developed as a quick and easy way to keep a hotel search handy on your computer. This widget is great for frequent travelers who need to find a hotel fast, a travel planner or anyone just daydreaming about their next trip.

All of the widgets are guaranteed by SoftPedia to be 100% free of adware/spyware and have received numerous awards.
