For travelers needing one foot in the frequent flier world, hotels are teaming up with airlines and offering so-called crossover rewards. Enrollees in such programs enjoy status at both the hotel or airline affiliated with the program.

The majority of frequent business travelers uphold hotel status as equal or more valuable to airline status. In fact, wealthier hard-core travelers prefer hotel status overwhelmingly.

In today’s volatile world, risk management in business travel is more important than ever. Organizations have a duty of care for their employees, but they need help to meet it. The solution is a travel management company who understands the high-touch service, preparation, and proactivity required to keep everyone at all levels of the travel program safe and well.

Today, frequent flier miles get you only so far. Instead, focus on redeeming your business travel hotel points when vacationing with family or friends.

As the global business landscape changes, so does the nature of corporate travel – and the needs of a global managed travel program evolve along with it. Organizations today require consistent service and data visibility worldwide, along with support that understands local and cultural sensitivities, to keep their travelers safe, productive, and happy on the road.
