In June, NOAA.gov proclaimed this 2017 hurricane season would incur 11 to 17 named storms, which is more than the 30-year average for the Atlantic Basin. As Houston and Florida residents and companies recover from Harvey and Irma (not to mention Jose and Maria), hundreds of business travelers were left stranded with no way to return home, since many corporate travel policies were solution prohibitive, regardless of the situation.
The result of these harsh policies has corporate road warriors feeling leery, to downright anxious, about traveling to destinations where the need for getting out quickly is always a looming possibility – areas that can be stricken by hurricanes, tornadoes, tsunamis, floods, earthquakes and wildfires.
Left unchecked, corporate travel costs are among the highest costs in any company. They will run amok quickly without stringent rules in place. That being said, emergency travel policies need to be restructured with a separate set of rules. For example, there were many stories in the news about how travelers caught in the recent Hurricane Irma couldn’t get flights, or they were so cost prohibitive, they risked their lives remaining behind.
5 Corporate Travel Policies That Need Rethinking
AmTrav is proud to be a trusted partner in these situations. We go to extreme lengths to help our clients and travelers in times like these. In the recent hurricanes, we notified our travelers well in advance on the possibilities of delays and canceled flights. This meant less urgent calls and fewer people stranded.
We are notified by the airlines or Flightstats whenever a traveler’s flight is canceled, and we automatically rebook them on the next available flight. We always provide our travelers with the best travel alternatives in challenging and unpredictable situations.
For safe travels, rest assured that AmTrav always has your best interests in mind.
