Sorry, Android users. The way the app works: you enter your flight info and \u00a0a list of all nearby shops, food and beverage options. If you\u2019d like something delivered from a different terminal, you\u2019ll have to place your order up to a week in advance. The service is free when you place an order to be picked up from the shop you ordered from and charges a fee ranging from $3.99 to $7.99 for delivery. Airport Sherpa is only available at BWI for now but plans to expand to nearly 20 airports by the end of 2018.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Air Grub<\/b><\/h2>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-lang=\"en\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Who&#8217;s the app that lest you skip airport lines when you Order, Grab, GO?

Once you enter your flight info you\u2019ll find which restaurants are in your terminal and can then place an order and pay in the app. What\u2019s cool about this app is that Air Grub has partnered with American Airlines frequent-flier program, giving \u00a0members four miles per dollar spent on the app.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Jourve<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>Inspired when developer Hope Porter witnessed a traveler faint in an airport because she didn&#8217;t have time to eat, Jourve provides a service like no other airport app. Recently launched in Baltimore\/Washington Thurgood Marshall International Airport the app allows you to hire what it calls a \u201cjourber<span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 16px;\">\u201d &#8212; \u00a0which is kind of like a personal assistant for the airport.
