What is the difference between a corporate travel agent and a leisure tourism travel agent?
Corporate travel agents have the necessary experience and know-how to assist business travellers who require expertly streamlined itineraries when they travel on behalf of their companies. Whereas leisure travel agents are normally more focused on the things to see and do in a given destination, our team works with each company and corporate traveller to ensure that their time on the road and in the air is spent as efficiently and cost-effectively as possible.

What is bleisure travel?
The term 'bleisure' is a cross-cultivation between 'business and leisure'. It refers to a journey that has both business travel and leisure components. For instance, an employee who travels for work may choose to take leave days before or after the dates that they are due to be at a certain destination on behalf of their company, and use this time to explore a new and exciting destination.
How do I book corporate travel?
You can book corporate travel yourself, just like you would a personal journey, i.e. sourcing, paying for and securing confirmation of flights, transfers, accommodation, etc. However, since there is a lot of due diligence in play when employees travel on behalf of an employer, it helps to have a corporate travel manager to assist with this process so they may leverage their knowledge and network of travel contacts on your behalf.
What is a corporate travel policy and why are corporate travel policies important?
A corporate travel policy is a formal document that details the procedures and rules of business-related trips. It is important to have this in place so there is an agreed-upon set of rules that govern all aspects of business travel, including booking, reporting, expensing and invoicing.
