What you should know about Corporate Travel Agencies

frequently asked questions

What is a Corporate Travel Agency?

A corporate travel agency works directly with other businesses in order to organize and streamline their travel processes. Shouldering the burden of responsibility, the agency becomes entirely responsible for enforcing travel policy and making sure travellers always get to their destination on time.

Who Regulates Travel Agencies in Canada?

Corporate travel agencies such as ourselves are licensed by IATA to sell airfares and access their Global Distribution System.

In terms of consumer protection, that differs in each province. For example, in British Columbia, we are licensed by the City of Vancouver as well as Consumer Protection – an advocacy group that financially fights fraud.

What is a Business Travel Agent?

A business travel agent is an expert in their field, often entirely responsible for delivering travel solutions to clients with incredible demands on their time.

This means, thinking on their feet and solving problems well before they arise; a missed flight can sometimes be the difference between an entire business sinking or swimming.

On top of flawless administrative work booking flights, car rentals and hotels, a first class agent will also offer up-to-date advice and current recommendations.

What is a Corporate Travel Policy?

A corporate travel policy is a document developed by a business in order to maintain a level of control over a their set budget for travel.

A great corporate travel policy can eliminate wasteful spending, increase efficiency and avoid some difficult conversations along the way.

When drafting your corporate travel policy, it is essential that all relevant stakeholders are present to share their opinions on the policy’s development.
