Travel Policies

Successful travel managers understand the importance of having a robust business travel policy in place. Not only will a policy help manage expected travel costs, but it will also help keep travellers safe and clearly define what is and is not acceptable when on a business trip. 

Effective compliance will require you to work in close partnership with your Travel Counsellor to ensure maximum compliance from travellers and bookers and to identify and understand areas of non-compliance. Making it clear from the start what the penalties are for non-compliance should help to get everyone on board. 

VIP Services

Where there are VIP guests in attendance, your Travel Counsellor will dedicate themselves to the VIP to ensure that at every stage of their journey they have someone on-hand to cater for their every need. There are no limits to what we can offer a VIP, from meet and greet services to helicopter transfers and concierge services, we’ll ensure all of your VIP’s preferences are met – first time, every time.

Some of the services that we offer:

  • VIP Check-in
  • Supplier notification of VIP in attendance
  • Meet and Greet Services, including airport fast-track
  • Concierge service (restaurant, theatre, sports, and more)

Leading Technology

Our large in-house technology development team have created a world-class booking platform, Phenix, developed for the specific needs of our customers and Travel Counsellors alike.

The Phenix platform aggregates fares, product, invoicing and client information content in one place. This ensures rich content for customers and efficiency for our Travel Counsellors leading to efficient turnaround times, accurate invoicing, reporting and visibility of your business with Travel Counsellors.

In addition, myTC, our mobile travel app allows you to view quotes and bookings on the move, as a group or as an individual, giving you real-time travel updates.
