"As the technology for hand-held devices has advanced, more and more people have traded in their traditional cell phones for gadgets such as smart phones and PDAs," said Jeffrey Glueck, Chief Marketing Officer, Travelocity. "Whether it's changing a flight or adding a rental car to their booking, mobile.travelocity.com gives travelers options for managing their trip while they're on-the-go."

The new service will be powered by New York-based Usablenet, Inc. On an average day, tens of thousands of travelers connect via Usablenet to manage their trip via their mobile device.
