GateGuru

A handy antidote for terminal frustration

Traveling is a pain. And we’ve all found ourselves waiting at a gate, only to find out that the flight has been moved across the terminal. GateGuru attempts to make navigating the airport a little less painful. The app will send you push notifications in case of a gate change.

It also has maps and lists of amenities for major airports around the country. And you can look at reviews that others have left about the airport to find the best food on the go.

The app does require your location to work. GateGuru also has a lot of partnerships, including with Avis, which means that you can book rentals from within the app — often at a discount.

You can also connect your GateGuru account to other services such as Tripit and Kayak to pull in planned flights automatically. Free, for iOS, Android and Windows Phone devices.
