Support for LGBT Business Travelers Needs to Be Ramped Up


Skift Take

Travel managers should get much more active when fending off problems for LGBTQ travelers headed to certain destinations. Knowledge, understanding, and the right tools can make all the difference.
When many think about ensuring business travelers are safe and secure when abroad, the focus tends to fall on managing travel disruptions and avoiding terrorism. Yet, the culture of a country can pose problems as well. This week, we're taking a look at the challenges faced by lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer business travelers along with the ways that travel managers can do a better job supporting them. We also have the latest on business class and low-cost airline trends from around the world, and updates on digital security threats that have cropped up recently.
