Companies and Business Travel Arrangements

Business Travel is an important product, with European countries spending over US$4 billion each year on travel. Business people rarely make their own travel arrangements, and very few companies employ a travel planning specialist. Instead, companies use a variety of ways to make their travel arrangements, such as:

In-plant of a business travel agent, usually a small office working independently inside a large company.

Preferred business travel agent - also called "business house". One agency (who will work for many companies) is chosen to make all travel arrangements.

Personal assistant or secretary making reservations for an individual traveler.

Company employee making reservations for everyone in the department or section (or even the whole company if it is a small one).
