Egencia adds business travel perks with new Egencia Advantage program

Monday, 17 Nov, 2017 0

Expedia’s business travel division Egencia has announced the rollout of a new global program offering perks and enhanced productivity for road warriors throughout the journey.

Egencia Advantage has teamed up with partners to provide seamless airport lounge access, traveler risk management and travel visa services.

It has tapped airport lounge aggregator LoungeBuddy to provide bookable access in lounges worldwide, and now offers comprehensivetravel visa processing services, including application, renewal or replacement for destinations around the world.

"As a leading travel management company we are going beyond booking to offer travelers a best-in-class integrated experience that makes corporate travel as efficient and enjoyable as possible. There are so many touchpoints throughout the trip where we can help – from airport check-in to lounge access," said Mark Hollyhead, chief operating officer at Egencia.

"At Egencia, we build our own technology, so we can connect travelers with the service providers they know and love, and fold them into a seamless package."

Egencia has also inked a partnership with AirHelp, which can make compensation claims on behalf of travelers with airlines following a flight disruption within, from or to the EU.

The service is also actively looking to bring more value-added perks such as the ability to pre-reserve an airport parking spot and enjoy fast track security clearance at departure airports among others.

Egencia also announced that Mieke De Schepper, current vice president, market management for the Expedia’s lodging partner services in Asia Pacific will become Egencia’s SVP and chief commercial officer from January 2018.
