Travelocity has launched a new native application that offers iPhone and iPod touch users an innovative set of travel features while they are on the road.

The new application, TravelTools, includes a new location-based feature called "Hotels Near Me" which provides a dynamic list of nearby hotels, with links to maps, hotel descriptions, and booking options.

iPhone and iPod touch users away from home can also manage their itineraries booked on Travelocity, as well as get information on flight status and TSA security checkpoint wait times.

The TravelTools application will be available as a free download worldwide from Apple's App Store on iPhone and iPod touch or at www.itunes.com/appstore/.

Earlier this year, Travelocity was one of the first major online travel sites to launch an application available to iPhone and iPod touch users via a Safari browser at http://iphone.travelocity.com.
