Business travel can be a frustrating and tiring experience; and that is before you factor in the expense. With companies increasingly offering employees at all grades incentives to save on their business, it’s also a subject which is being increasingly discussed this summer. This post brings you a few simple ideas to keep the costs of business travel down while maintaining the quality of experience.
Don’t go
The single biggest way to save money on business travel is not to travel at all. There are so many ways to connect with people that you should justify every trip that you must take.
Don’t rush
With it being increasingly difficult to escape the office there should be even less of a reason to dash in and out during business travel. This could offer you cheaper flights and the possibility of enjoying your destination or getting some peaceful work done.
Don’t do just one
When you must travel, try and achieve as much as possible; perhaps visiting two or more destinations while travelling. In a similar vein, you could join the trend of combining business with pleasure to reduce overall costs on both sides.
Don’t delay
With rates for hotels and plane tickets both getting more expensive per trip, one way around this is to decide – and book – early, when the best rates are available.
Do get the right card
Choosing the credit card with the right benefits for you, either cashback or access to benefits you’d otherwise pay for, can be another sensible way of saving cash. Foreign transaction fees can also be a source of unnecessary expense that the right card can help with.
A sensible option is using a reputable car service. This should minimize time and hassle at the airport and allow you some real focused time during your transfer.
