It has been a while since the last update to BlackBerry Travel for BlackBerry 10 rolled out but it seems BlackBerry has been showing the app some love behind the scenes. A new update is currently filtering through BlackBerry World that, aside from bringing in some bug fixes, also adds additional language support and battery optimizations as well as enhancements to trip scanning. As a fan of the app, I can say the changes are indeed welcome. Here's the full change log as per BlackBerry World:
Supports English, French, Italian, German, Spanish, Dutch, Turkish, Indonesian Bahasa and Portugese (Brazillian) Improvements to email trip scanningBattery consumption improvementsItinerary items will be added to the default calendarBug fixesIf you're not seeing the update as of yet, you can check for updates to help it along or preview the app in BlackBerry World and the upgrade might show as available. Oddly, I'm seeing two different versions here. On my BlackBerry Z10, it shows as v3.0.2.5 but online, it shows as v3.1.0.6. Maybe there is different versions for the Z10 vs. Q10? There seems to be a lot of that going around with the Q10 getting higher revisions of apps. New to BlackBerry Travel and need the download link? You'll find it below.

Reply 00stryder 1 day agoHoping to get better trip scanning as I caught it slipping with a blatant trip set up using my regular email. It worked with the email forwarding system, but it was flawless on legacy devices. Ah well, always love app updates!
Posted via CB10 & loving it!

Reply diegonei 1 day agoBut doesn't BB Maps offer navigation and turn by turn already?
Reply HofstraJet 1 day agoBB Traffic is much more than navigation and turn by turn - it shows you the traffic and delays on the way to your destination as a timeline and provides alternate faster routes in a simple, easy to read interface - no need for overview maps or other data hogs. It also allows you to share your eta via email, which is nice when you are running late. Essential tool for a daily commute and a nice addition for long trips - has saved me many hours of being stuck in traffic. Can't wait for the BB10 version to arrive. I keep my old 9700 in my car and use mobile hotspot on my Z10 just to use this app every day on my way to and from the office.
Reply blackout626 19 hours agoAgreed. BlackBerry Traffic is definitely on my most wanted apps list for BlackBerry
10.

Reply Supa_Fly1 1 day agoExcellent keep making these core must have applications better BlackBerry.
CrackBerry needs to have a forum post for all BB10 users to thank BlackBerry on their efforts for improving various applications and the core OS. Maybe near Christmas time or Thanksgiving 2013. Hmm.
Reply npisano 1 day agoStill won't add my flights or hotel bookings to my calendar. I guess not all bugs were fixed :(
Uninstalled, re-installed, now adding to calendar. Yippee!!
If you un install and reinstall, will you still have the trip n stuff that you previously set up? I'm tempted to reinstall cuz I really want this feature.. but can't afford losing all the hotels n flights I have set up.
Thanks!

Reply polytan02 1 day agoI've always been really disappointed with BlackBerry Travel.
I tried this new version on my Z10, and (I live in the UK) it doesn't recognise the city of Parma (in Italy) neither offer flights to go there.
Also, I wanted to do a "In country" trip and it didn't recognise the city of Carlisle.
Then, I stopped my investigations there ;)
Am I doing it wrong or is this tool designed for the US and Canada only?

Reply marknick 1 day agoI use BlackBerry travel in the UK every week. I never had any issues with it recognising towns at all... one tip, sometimes when the signal is weak on the z10... it will search, then time out its search. I had to live without this app for 6 weeks when I swapped to the Z10, it was chaos!!!

Reply ontherock3 1 day agoLove this App, it is a must have for me. Just travelled to the USA, United Kingdom, and France in the last month; would have been lost without this App. Now that this App is updated and the Q10 is released today in Canada...today is a good day. Off to get a Q10 today :-)

Reply ibpluto 23 hours agoIs it just me, or is there no way to have multiple emails on the account profile now?
Posted via CB10 from my awesome Z10
Reply u4ria 21 hours agoNot just you. I've noticed that the option to add multiple email accounts has been removed. That part wasn't broken, so why would BlackBerry remove that option???
Reply Yandar 23 hours agoI'd love to see train support as that my primary mode of travel. If you don't fly much it severely restricts the usefulness of BlackBerry travel.

Reply claudioh 23 hours agoNo way to make it scan a flight confirmation email, not even forwarding it to myself. Can I find real help or support somewhere?
Posted via CB10
Reply shootsscores 21 hours agoThe update should fix that problem for you. I was forwarding emails to BB travel prior to this. Once I updated, all my previous trip related emails were scanned and added to the app. Why already completed trips were added is a mystery to me but at least they were added. The original BB travel worked like magic. Hope this latest update brings that magic fully back. If you're having problems, you might try uninstalling and reinstall it.

Reply konvajw 20 hours agoGood update (really glad trips are now being synched to my default calendar - Outlook), but the hotel I just booked for this Friday is showing up on Saturday..... Something wrong going on here with dates/times. Is it just me or broader problem?
Reply purpledog10 19 hours agoStill not adding to default calendar, and some things are not added to the local calendar, either. I've reinstalled, turned on/off my phone, with no success. Now trying a battery pull...
Update: battery pull didn't work, either.
Reply Scrybe 17 hours agoI'm still having the problem with it putting trips into the local calendar instead of the default calendar. I've deleted my trips, reinstalled the app, rebooted the phone, but still can't get it to work.
Local calendar is no good because I can't share my trips.
I wonder if it's an issue with which type of calendar. My calendar is an outlook.com calendar; is bbtravel syncing with anybody's outlook.com calendar?
