The TV, film, and entertainment industry is exciting yet complex. Whether you’re managing a sprawling cast and crew or coordinating the logistics for a high-end production or world tour, the challenges can be overwhelming. But, that's where our sector expertise comes in. This blog post will showcase how we can transform your travel experience from one of stress and intricacy to seamless efficiency.
Expert, industry-specific knowledge
In the entertainment industry, things can change at the drop of a hat - from adverse weather affecting filming or performances, to illness leading to cancelled tour dates. With such a dynamic environment, having a travel partner who understands your needs and can adapt quickly is essential.
Travel Counsellors for Business offers unparalleled support and a concierge-style service before, during, and after your crew has travelled. We work as an extension of your team, taking care of all the details so you can focus on creating magic on screen or stage.
Putting your safety and security first
Safety and security are paramount, whether on location or during downtime. From securing safe and comfortable accommodation to ensuring that filming locations are fit for purpose, we take every precaution to ensure the wellbeing of your team. That includes taking the specific needs of individual travellers into account - whether that's taking care of dietary or medical needs, or simply making sure a rider is stocked with your performer's must-have items. Our 24/7 support means that help is always just a phone call away, providing peace of mind no matter where in the world you are.
Access to the right locations
Location, location, location — it's a mantra in the entertainment business. We offer assistance with every stage of production, from initial location scouting to offering travel advice and visa support. Our extensive network ensures that you have access to the best locations for your needs – whether you need a secluded beach, a rugged mountain range or a lively cityscape.
Handling equipment logistics
Getting your gear to the right place at the right time is critical. From cameras and lighting to sound equipment, props and costumes, we ensure all your equipment arrives safely and on schedule. We can assist with shipping arrangements, customs clearance, and any other logistical challenges that may arise.
Data and insights to support cost management
Budget overruns can derail even the best-planned productions or tours. Our myTC Insights tool helps you manage production costs by providing detailed insights into your travel expenses. With this data, you can make informed decisions about the most cost-effective and responsible ways to get your team where they need to be.
VIP treatment
With Travel Counsellors for Business, every member of your team will receive five-star service – but we understand that some people require a little extra. Whether it’s securing a penthouse suite, arranging first-class flights, or providing a luxury chauffeur, we cater to every wish of your VIPs, ensuring they can focus on the job in hand without any distractions.
One size doesn’t fit all, especially in the entertainment industry. With Travel Counsellors for Business, you get a partner who understands your unique needs and is committed to exceeding your expectations. We customise travel plans to meet the specific needs of your production. If you need to arrange last-minute flights, book long-term accommodations, or coordinate complex itineraries, we’ve got you covered. Get in touch to find out how we can make travelling in the TV and entertainment industry a breeze.
Planning business trips is no mean feat, with many spinning plates to juggle at any given time - often leading to added stress for travel managers in their roles. The need for a strategic solution to alleviate stress and enhance efficiency has never been greater – and that’s where Travel Counsellors for Business would be delighted to step in.
Business travel is a crucial component for many organisations, but when was the last time you assessed your travel programme? A thorough business travel review can help your organisation identify inefficiencies, uncover opportunities for improvement, and ultimately provide a better experience for your travellers.
Remember when company-paid trips were a coveted workplace perk? Incentivised travel is making a comeback since the disruption of the pandemic. These are trips where a company will bring their top business partners or customers away, whether that’s to a key conference or as a reward.
