Hipmunk: A unique take on travel search (pictures)

With its uniquely visual search results page, Hipmunk makes it easy to compare different flight itineraries in terms of several different factors at once. Doing the same can be difficult with other travel apps that offer search results only in a list form.

While you're waiting for search results to appear, you can hit Subscribe to opt in to Fare Alerts. With alerts enabled, Hipmunk will let you know as soon as any relevant flight fares change.

Tap on any flight option to get more-detailed information.

With Hipmunk's new "Tonight Only" deals, you can find last-minute discounts on hotel rooms.

With Hipmunk's powerful hotel search tool, you see results on a map, and filter items by attributes like price, rating, and property type.

Hipmunk's different Heatmaps can help you find the hottest areas for shopping, eating, or partying. They're a great tool for when you're traveling to a new city.
