Lonely Planet North American iOS Guides Free Until Friday

We know Lonely Planet has a policy of making its iOS travel guides free in cities where travellers get stranded, and that it did so for snowed-in European locations over Christmas. Now it has a similar deal in place for North American cities suffering freak snowstorms, with 14 free guides on offer until Friday.

Cities covered under the deal include Boston, Chicago, Fort Myers and Sanibel, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Miami, Montreal, New Orleans, New York City, San Francisco, Seattle, Toronto, Vancouver and Washington DC. As ever, it’s a handy way to get free info for cities you might visit in the future (and doubly useful if you really are snowbound and seeking things to do).
