Client Case Study: $5M in Air spend
Most travel departments are aware there are savings if air travel is booked 14 days in advance of travel. However, most are unaware of the amount of savings that can actually be generated by shifting the traveler buying behavior.
Outcome: Shifting up to 60% of tickets to 14-day advance purchase can decrease air spend by $275,000 annually.
Today’s travelers follow policy compliance for the majority of their air travel, but hotels are frequently booked outside of preferred channels which impacts not only traveler efficiency, but the company’s ability to support them from a Duty of Care perspective.
Outcome: Including hotel adoption for 75% of your overnight air bookings can deliver annual savings to your program of over $92,500.
Rideshare services have driven a major shift and changes in policy considerations. Specifically, as it relates to taxi spend, on average, shared services such as Uber and Lyft are delivering significant cost savings while responding to your travelers’ requests for convenience.
Outcome: Shifting to ride share over taxi for 60% of your taxi spend in major metropolitan cities can save you $99,675.
