Business travelers rank adjusting travel plans, making dinner reservations and checking into hotels as three of the top four "must have" mobile applications, according to a new survey from KRC Research and commissioned by Omni Hotels & Resorts.
Besides taking care of travel matters, the survey found business travelers use mobile and social applications to take care of personal items, explore the local area and connect with friends and family.
Checking the latest sports scores, updating Facebook, looking for the nearest coffee spot and tweeting were also highly rated in the recent survey. In addition, 61 percent of all business travelers were burning the midnight oil online - not on business from the day - but on managing their personal lives remotely.
The younger business traveler was even more focused on finding personal balance.
