TripAdvisor was listed as one of the best travel sites available for one-stop travel shopping in July 2010 by Anick Jesdanun of the Associated Press. According to Jesdanun's research, TripAdvisor allows you to research, book and purchase your trip all in one sitting, whether you're booking a one-way flight to Orlando, Florida, or a three-week backpacking tour through Europe. With filters that help you weed out travel options that don't pertain to your travel needs and interests, including filtering out those airlines that aren't frequent-flier mile alliances, travel planning has come down to a science on this website. The site even calculates any baggage fees, as well as any other add-on fees.
