Amex GBT adds ground transportation options
American Express Global Business Travel has expanded its booking options with new ground transportation provider, GroundSpan.
The new offering is now available in Egencia.
Egencia’s customers get access to GroundSpan’s global ground transportation supplier network.
It includes various vehicle types such as chauffeured sedans, SUVs and multi-passenger vans.
In cities across North America, customers will have the ability to book chauffeured transportation and have access to new booking features.
Egencia’s improved user experience allows travelers or arrangers to book ground transportation in three simple steps – search, select and book.
New features include pre-populated business reporting data fields and custom frequently used pick-up and drop-off locations to streamline bookings.
Flight details are also automatically passed on to the vehicle supplier for active flight monitoring.
Egencia Analytics Studio enables travel managers to quickly view trends in overall ground transportation spend.
Heather Lisagor, Product Management VP, said: “This is a complete redesign of the ground transport booking experience for customers.”
“Our new and improved offering provides travelers and arrangers with a seamless experience.”
It is anticipated that later this year, Neo, Amex GBT’s online integrated travel and expense solution, will also be expanding its ground transportation options with GroundSpan.
