West Palm Beach, FL (PRWEB) November 18, 2014
The holidays are among the busiest long-distance travel periods of the year. Nearly 30 percent of Americans are expected to take a trip this holiday season. Out of the expected 94.5 million Americans, 9 of 10 will travel by car. Highway traffic, busy airports and endless security lines can make traveling an extremely stressful time.
Digital Lifestyle Expert Mario Armstrong worked with the following companies during the media tour to showcase some of the technology, websites and mobile apps that will relieve some of the holiday travel stress! The tour is featured on the consumer technology lifestyle website http://www.KillerApps.TV.
“We wanted to look at a number of tech gadgets along with websites and apps that were fun, useful and convenient for travelers.” said News Media Group’s Executive Producer, Karl Wayne. “Travel can be stressful, but we felt choosing the right technology could help deliver a better travel experience.”
Here are some of tech tools that were featured during the tour.
