Discount Air Travel

Looking for ways to make more savings on discount air travel? As a Personal Assistant you may be responsible for the travel budget, and charged with finding ways to save money. Do you know that you can make savings by contacting the airlines directly, as opposed to searching discount travel websites or contacting travel agents. This article on discount travel tips gives a number of suggestions on how you can save money with the airlines. More on discount travel>>

Travel Consolidators - What do They do?

Using a travel consolidator is another way to control the corporate travel budget. Travel consolidators negotiate high volumes of discounted tickets from airlines and sell them on at a discounted price. Some travel consolidators are owned by airlines. Expedia.com is one of the larger travel consolidators. More on travel consolidators

Serviced Apartments - A Great Alternative to Hotels

If you are booking accommodation for secondments or extended stays, why not consider a serviced apartment. You could make a saving of up to 30% off the cost of an extended hotel stay. Serviced apartments provide more space and privacy. And creature comforts like satellite TV, DVD player, stereo, and broadband to create a home from home. So the next time you need to accommodate a VIP or find accommodation for a temporary assignment or secondment, consider a serviced apartment. More on serviced apartments
