Simplify Your Corporate Travel: The All-In-One Advantage

You’re at work, booking your own business trip, and right now you’ve got about twenty search tabs open on your desktop. You’re simultaneously searching airlines, hotels, car-hire companies, as well as various online travel websites, looking for the best deal. But the prices keep changing. Seats are disappearing. You can’t find the room you need in the right part of town. Schedules won’t co-ordinate. Nothing is lining up. You wipe a little bead of sweat from your brow so your colleagues don’t notice - but you can’t hide that it’s all quickly turning into a nightmare.

Sound familiar?

If you’ve ever booked your own business travel, you’ll understand the challenges and complexities that come with doing it yourself.  Managing travel logistics can be a daunting task, often requiring the coordination skills of a flight attendant serving drinks to a football team while passing through severe turbulence.

Luckily, there is a better way. Booking your travel through a single company, such as Flight Centre Business Travel (FCBT) has many advantages, none the least of which is taking the stress out of the booking process.

At FCBT, we’re the experts in delivering business travel with the lot, so we’ve identified the key benefits of having a one-stop shop like us looking after your business travel. 

• Streamlined process: instead of juggling multiple platforms and vendors, you can manage everything through a single point of contact – us. Not only does this save you time and stress, but it also minimises the chance of errors and miscommunications.
  
   
• Cost savings: As a part of the Flight Centre group, FCBT can leverage our extensive network and relationships with airlines, hotels, and car rental companies to secure exclusive rates and discounts for you. We can offer better-negotiated terms and bundled deals that are difficult to obtain independently​. 
  
   
• 24/7 support: With FCBT, you get a dedicated Travel Manager who understands your business needs and provides 24/7 support, ensuring that assistance is always available, whether it's for unexpected changes, cancellations, or emergencies. 

• Travel policy compliance:  When you’re managing your own travel, getting travellers to adhere to your travel policy rules can be challenging. FCBT helps businesses enforce travel policies more effectively, providing greater cost control and transparency. This also ensures that employees adhere to company guidelines, reducing the risk of unauthorised expenses. 
  
   
• Data analytics and reporting: Working with a one-stop shop like FCBT means you have access to comprehensive data analytics and reporting which provide you with insights into your travel patterns and expenses. This can mean more informed decisions, better travel policies, and bigger savings. Businesses can track their travel spend in real-time, making it easier to manage budgets and plan for future travel needs​
