4 Business Travel Problems Faced by PAs & How to Solve Them!

Personal Assistants. Booking business travel for your team can be a small part of your role, yet can take up a disproportionate amount of time and cause a LOT of stress!

Here’s some of the most common problems we have come across in our work with both global companies and local SMEs and how we can make your life easier by combining the best talent with the best technology.

Unpredictable Trips

Trips aren’t always set in stone. Perhaps your boss is unsure of when their conference will end, or how a series of meetings will go.

We can help with that. We will book your outbound trip as soon as you have a departure date confirmed. We can work with you after that to sort out flexible tickets for the return journey, as well as the hotel, the taxi or car hire and everything in between.

We will also use your company’s data to make recommendations on how you can maximise savings and minimise traveller impact every time you book.

Things go Wrong

Flights get cancelled, people get ill and accidents occur. Don’t panic about the Director stuck in Japan, or the Manager who has taken ill in his hotel.

Using our Traveller Tracking software, we monitor where your travellers are at all times. Real time alerts will be sent directly to travellers affected by disruption and to you, their team.

Instantly we will be researching the best travel options and rebooking the journey.

You have access to emergency support 24/7, 365 days a year.

Multi-Itinerary Bookings

Some trips are not as simple as A,B,C. They can involve multiple cities, train bookings, airline reservations, hotel stays and more.

Our cutting-edge system allows you to make all your bookings with ease and manage just one itinerary. You can compare flights from all major airlines, book rail trips and find the perfect hotel in one spot. If you don’t have time, we can do it for you at no extra cost.

Travel Spend and Reporting

Keeping track of travel spend can be one of the most challenging parts of the business travel process.

We can produce reports on total travel spend, amount saved, saving opportunities, booking trends and compliance rates.

We can also provide a cost breakdown by centre, business unit, department, individual travellers and bookers.
