Expedia, Orbitz, and Travelocity are continuing to innovate when it comes to simplifying the booking process. Here's how:
Expedia The traveler opinions feature sorts hotels by other people's reviews.
Orbitz An insider deals application, downloaded to your desktop, allows you to select up to three potential itineraries (with proposed budgets). They'll alert you with a pop-up tab when the prices match your magic number.
Travelocity Through partnerships with nonprofit organizations such as Earthwatch Institute, GlobeAware, and Cross-Cultural Solutions, Travelocity now makes it possible to plan volunteer vacations; plus, the company awards two travel grants per quarter. (Applications are available on the site.)
