Growing Need for Companies to drive policy
compliance and centralise their booking system
Train companies are developing products & services to attract corporate travellers such as:
Wifi
Premium Economy
Catering
Companies also need to provide their travellers with a one-stop comprehensive
booking experience that keeps them in the managed environment…
…with an intuitive user interface they have come to expect from consumer booking systems,
and integrated into company travel policies and reporting systems.
