The Best Apps To Download Ahead Of The Christmas Commute

We're getting close to Christmas once again, and unlike last year many of us will be a lot more active in where we go and who we see, including the commute back for Christmas Day to spend it with family.

It's a trip millions of us do every year, spending hours on public transport, crammed in with presents and treats. And while it all becomes worth it when we get to spend precious time with our loved ones, the journey itself is far from fun.

However, it doesn't need to be that way, and there are plenty of ways you can make the journey smoother, from playing on apps such as real money casino, to train and weather apps...

Gaming

Gaming is one of the best ways to pass time on lengthy journeys, and there are so many options out there. Enjoying slots has become popular all over the world from playing casino Australia bound to the US, Europe and beyond, while there's always space for the likes of puzzles, action games and more too.

Games are perfect as you can dip in and out of them as you please, spending lengthy sessions playing blackjack or doing a wordsearch, or spending a few minutes here and a few minutes there.

Travel Apps

If you're travelling via public transport then you're so reliant on everything running on time, from setting off to making connections, and of course, arriving at your destination. Often this will be unknown to you as you move from destination to destination, but downloading a travel app will help you keep on top of your timings, and any changes you may have to make to your journey.

Apps such as Trainline can be helpful with this, while almost every travel operator will have their own app to track progress these days.

Weather

If you're travelling a significant distance, then knowing the forecast for the other side is a must, particularly during the winter period. You can keep an eye on the weather for the few days prior to setting off, so you can pack efficiently, while even checking during the journey will leave you prepared for arrival. Is it hat and gloves weather? You'll be sure to know...
