Hi, We're AmTrav

Our modern look and nimble product updates
make us seem like a startup. We're not.

We have been helping business travel booking for over 30 years.

 

A BUSINESS THAT'S ALWAYS BEEN PERSONAL

In 1989, co-founders Jeff and Craig met as dorm-mates at the University of Michigan. What started mostly as an attempt to get a free spring break trip became their lifelong passion.

EVERYDAY WE (TRY TO) LIVE OUR VALUES

MAKE BUSINESS PERSONAL

Connecting people to collaborate is what we’re about. We work hard to deliver the best experience to each traveler, teammate, travel manager, and partner, greasing wheels to give people more power to grow further.

THINK UNCONVENTIONALLY

We go for great, embracing diversity and out of the box thinking. We don't allow constraints to limit, but fearlessly reinvent new ways to unlock value. We reward ideas from everyone.

BE RADICALLY HONEST

Tell It Like It Is. Hear It How It Is. Really. Give honest feedback, recognize that sometimes that might be tough to say and hear. But if we are true, we build trust with customers, partners and each other.

 

KEEP IT FUN

Lines between work and personal are blurring and each inspires the other. We keep the mood light, positive, and creative for customers and ourselves. We keep things real, human and fun.

A HISTORY OF TRAVEL FIRSTS

We’ve been pushing envelopes and re-inventing wheels for a long time. Usually, it’s worked out. Here are some of our “firsts” that we’re most proud of.

icon-plane-tickets-1

First travel site to let you mix and match two non-partner airlines into one booking.
Cheaper and more convenient itineraries became possible.

2012

First travel site to show in-flight amenities with each flight option.
Know in advance if you’ll have WiFi or TV.

icon-bitcoin-1

2013

First travel booking tool to offer premium, “extra legroom” seats.
It’s easier to be more comfortable.

First online travel agency to sell flights to Cuba from the U.S.A.
A big technical challenge, take our word for it.

First to show side-by-side comparisons of all the fares on a flight.
Easily see when a little more will get you a lot.
