Amadeus launches latest online booking tool for corporates
Amadeus has released the latest version of its e-Travel Management solutions aimed at corporations.
It claims the technology overcomes the conflict between a travel manager’s demands for tighter travel policy compliance and a traveller’s desire for more flexibility.
Travel managers can now allow mixed combinations of economy and business class on the same trip, fine-tune the approval process by enforcing approval for specific routes, or propose the lowest multiple negotiated fares.
For travellers, a new service called FareAnalyzer allows them to search and compare hundreds of flight options in a simple and fast display.
Back-up carriers can be promoted in case there is no availability from preferred carriers, avoiding frustration in the online booking experience for travellers and costly calls to the travel agency.
