Travel Scope
The travel industry encompasses a variety of different categories each grouped with an
NAICS (North American Industry Classification System) code.

561510 – Travel Agencies (including Meetings & Events)
Source: http://www.bls.gov
Page: 9
• Scheduled passenger air
transportation, hotel, passenger car
rentals and meeting/event planning
services are in scope for travel
sourcing.
• Because of the existing relationship
with current travel agency and the
subsequent process standardization,
it does not make sense to fully source
the travel agency component of travel
at this time. However, there may be
components of the contract to
reevaluate.
• Meeting/Event Planning Services are
categorized under the same NAICS
code as Travel Agencies.

2011 Airline Industry Revenue reached $591 Billion.
2011 Domestic Airline Industry amounted to $147
Billion
Domestic Airline industry revenue is forecast to
exhibit positive growth, increasing at a rate of 2%
per year to $162.3 Billion
United, Delta, and American are the market
leaders based on revenue
In 2011, United’s net income was $840M and Delta
earned $854M, while American lost close to $2
Billion. Alaska Air earned $244.5M, Southwest
$178M, US Airways $71M and Jet Blue earned
$86M.
For 2012, IATA forecasts an industry profit of $3.5
Billion, but with the Eurozone crisis and jet fuel
prices at an all time high, it will be interesting if this
forecast becomes true
Business travel represents 35% of airline’s revenue
AirlineFinancials.com predicts a 95% probability
that American Airlines and US Airways will merge in
the next 18 -24 months.
From 2000 – 2010, US Airlines improved their ontime arrivals from 72.6% to 79.8%.
From 2000 – 2010, airlines reduced greenhouse
gas emissions by 10%, while transporting 15%
more passengers and cargo.
Federal taxes constitutes $61 or 20% of a typical
$300 domestic round trip ticket.
Airline Industry: PPI (Producer Price Index) – Scheduled Passenger Air Transportation
The PPI (measures average change in prices over time) for passenger air transportation. For 2012 the average amounted to
285.6 which represents a gain of 9.5% from 2011.

Jet Fuel: In 2008, Fuel prices were at record
highs. For 2011, fuel prices have increased
to 2009 record highs. Each penny increase
in the price of a gallon of jet fuel adds $190
million in additional fuel costs
Aircraft Age & Type: Fuel consumption is
directly impacted by an aircraft’s age.
Standardization of aircraft fleet assists
airlines in reducing inventory and
maintenance costs
Distribution: This is a tiered cost for airlines,
ranging from proprietary websites to GDS
transaction costs
Labor: In 2010, labor cost has exceeded fuel
cost even though many airlines have been
slashed due to reshaping labor structure,
such as redundancies, sickness pay review,
bonuses
Other: These costs include insurance,
utilities, office supplies, advertising and
promotions, communication, personnel
expenses, injuries, loss and damage,
interrupted trips expenses, etc.

Historically jet fuel expenses have ranged
between 10% and 15% of U.S passenger
airline operating costs, but in 2008 the cost
of fuel was between 30% – 40% of total
operating expenses for most carriers. For
2012, average price of jet fuel was $129.60
per barrel.
The most reasonable explanation for such
high prices is tight supply and counteracting
the weak economic conditions
In 2008 and now in 2012, every dollar
increase per barrel (42 gallons) drove an
additional $448M in fuel expenses to
carriers’ bottom lines
From 2000 – 2010, US airlines carried 15%
more traffic while using 2.1 Billion fewer
gallons of fuel.
In 2011, US passenger and cargo airlines
spent $50.5 Billion on fuel, up $11.7 Billion
from 2010.

Historically, the cost of airfare flying into
Milwaukee Airport has been following the U.S.
average, but has dropped below since the end of
2009. Madison Airport, on the other hand, has
mostly stayed above the U.S. average.
AMEX 2013 US forecast:
• Short Haul: 2%-4% Coach 1%-3% Bus/1st
• Long Haul: (-1%)-2% Coach 1%-3% Bus/1st
CWT’s 2013 US forecast: 2.8% increase
Advito’s 2013 N/A Regional forecast shows a
YOY increase of +5% in Coach fares and +3% in
Bus fares.
Airlines found several ways to grow revenue
without raising fares – a la carte pricing: from
charging for select coach seat assignments,
boarding after elite status members, baggage
fees and fuel surcharges and possibly using
restrooms!
In 2011, US airlines posted the lowest annual rate
of mishandled baggage ever recorded.
In 2010, the airline industry earned approx. $23
billion in additional ancillary fees, which includes
$3.3 billion for baggage fees.

are shifting from luxury hotels to more
moderate mid-priced hotels
Hotel taxes, usually a combination of
sales and occupancy taxes along with
the occasional flat fee, range from 10%
to more than 18%.

component of non-air expenses, about
43% of the travel dollar

largest spend category
Other costs include those involved in
the initial investment in the hotel:
• Land comprises 45-50% of
total project cost
• Construction is about 25-30%
• Remainder goes to
furniture and fittings
Recently, the hotel sector has
experienced a significant increase in
insurance premiums particularly related
to public liability and health benefit
policies.
Hotel Industry: Room Rates
US hotel room rates started to decrease late 2008 which led to a buyers market. Buyers have enjoyed lower
hotel rates but rates have been increasing, especially in key markets.

Hotel showed signs of pricing strength starting in
2011, with 2012 forecast indicating an upward swing.
The majority of new hotels in the pipeline are limited
service properties, especially in the emerging
markets, China and India.
Full service and resort properties have been the
hardest hit with reduced demand and little new
construction.
Technology has lowered labor costs, increased
productivity and enhanced the customer service.

In the past 4 years, major car rental companies
trimmed fleets from a total of about 2 million cars to
about 1.3 million
Car rental companies have implemented a variety
of new ancillary fees to help preserve some of the
lost revenue in recent times, such as tacking on
fees to extend a reservation, eliminating 60 minute
grace period, or increasing the cost of a two-day
rental
Avis/Budget began working with GDS operators to
implement the addition of credit card information to
rental car bookings. This opens the door to assess
a no-show fee to travelers who fail to cancel their
reservation without sufficient notice
“Virtual rental technology” – enables customers to
reserve, rent, access and return cars just about

SAMPLE
Strategy Considerations
•
Company should examine current travel policies. Enforcement of on-line booking tool, advance
booking, preferred hotels and other travel guidelines will result in significant savings.
•
Because of the relative small air travel spend compared to other companies, in addition to moving
corporate headquarters to Dallas while still maintaining their Detroit area locations, Company
should consider focusing hard dollar airline discounts with one or two major carriers supporting
both markets. Furthermore, Company should consider exploring additional benefits for their
secondary markets
•
Company should re-examine their current preferred hotel program and consolidate markets and
room nights to leverage buying power
•
Company should leverage hotel spend for meetings/events in negotiating hotel rates for transient
travel
•
Preferred car rental utilization is “best in class”, therefore consider a competitive bid to leverage
utilization
•
Company may consider utilizing teleconferencing as an alternative to reduce their overall travel
usage

•
Current State
Travel policies located in Accounts Payable
Expenditure Manual – No enforcement
All departments using one travel agency,
however suspect that some Southwest
bookings are going directly to Southwest.com
Travel compliance is not be monitored
Recently moved corporate headquarters from
Detroit, MI to Dallas, TX
Top 3 airline spend: Northwest, American and
Southwest
Current contract with Northwest only (no
discount in Tier 3 and high market share
commitment)
70% of air spend in Tier 3
Some international air spend – about 15%
Sourcing Recommendation
• Create separate travel policy with management
enforcement
• Enter into negotiations with Northwest (current
contracted supplier) and American Airlines. In
addition, pursue possible corporate deal with
Southwest Airlines.
• Stimulate competition between Northwest
and American Airlines in multi-hub city pairs
• Stimulate competition between Northwest
and American Airlines for international air
spend
• Negotiate with Southwest and determine if
market share can support a formal corporate
agreement
• Market dynamics suggest a 2 year contract
Results
• Separate travel policy resulting in improved compliance
• Discount in Tier 3 level pricing
• Capture all Southwest spend

•
Current State
Travel policies located in Accounts Payable
Expenditure Manual – No enforcement
All departments using one travel agency, however
suspect that some hotel bookings are being
booked directly with hotel
Travel Agency manages and negotiates hotel
program
Large number of properties are being utilized in top
city markets (e.g. 75 hotels were utilized in the
Detroit (and surrounding) area in the last 12
months)
Cities are classified as Room Nights per City:
• Tier 1 (approx. 200+ Nights): 45% of hotel
spend in 12 market areas
• Tier 2 (<200 Nights): 55% of hotel spend in
the rest of the market area
Sourcing Recommendation
• Create separate travel policy and enforcement of
policy
• Tier 1: Issue a Request for Proposal to the
existing supply base as well as comparable
properties in defined geographies.
• Consolidate volume to increase bargaining
power
• Minimize number of options available in each
geography
• Pursue value-added amenities at no
additional cost
• Tier 2: Utilize Travel Agency rates and drive
volume to those properties with the lowest rates
Results
• Separate travel policy and enforcement which will result in improved compliance
• Competitive room rates in preferred cities
• Strategically selected properties by geography which will increase preferred property usage

97% of the car rental spend is with one
preferred supplier
Over 75% of car rental returns are subject to
refueling charges
The top 15 cities, by volume, represent 78% of
the rental car spend
Sourcing Recommendation
• Develop and implement one travel policy for all
departments
• Issue a Request for Proposal to the top 5 rental
car companies
• Consolidate volume from all sources to
increase bargaining power
• Request pricing for one primary and one
primary and one secondary supplier
relationship
• Negotiate refueling charges, if possible
• Negotiate city surcharges for the top 15
cities, by volume
• Market dynamics suggest a 2 year contract with
the option for a 1 year extension
Results
• One travel policy for all departments resulting in capturing the non-compliance that is being done
• Award contract to one primary or one primary and one secondary supplier, whichever is more
advantageous

Negotiations Approach – Discussion Points
SAMPLE
Based on a review of Company’s current program, contract terms, and stakeholder requirements, the
following improvement areas have been identified to maximize the annual incentive rebate.
Negotiation Point
Description
Supplier
Pricing, Incentive Rebate
Structure
• Size down the gap between rebate tiers to reduce the risk associated with dropping
to a lower tier. Closing the gap between tiers will inset Company to drive more
spend to Amex.
• Ensure incentive BPS earned at each tier are best in class for domestic and nondomestic spend.
• ABC
Pricing, Signing Bonus
• Reduce/eliminate minimum signing bonus *NACV thresholds (claw back clause) to
avoid refunding any portion of the $1M signing bonus paid to Company in 2008.
• Take a position which suggest Company is doing Amex a favor by offering them
other potential business. ABC should fight to keep this business considering
transition cost will be minimal for them, thus their margin will not be adversely be
effected.
• ABC
Pricing, Performance
Bonus
• Establish a realistic performance target based on the post spin *NACV, the current
(pre spin) performance target is too aggressive.
• Maximize the annual performance bonus.
• ABC
Pricing, Deductions
• Minimize consulting assessment expenses (hourly rate) and Membership Reward
(MR) fees which are deducted directly from the incentive rebate.
• Negotiate an annual credit which can be applied to consulting and MR expenses.
• ABC
Pricing, High ROC
Transactions
• Reduce the 50 BSP reduction on P-card transactions > $10K (Hi-ROC volume).
• Negotiate a buffer which can be applied to the Hi-ROC volume, i.e. request that the
BSP penalty apply only to Hi-ROC volume which exceeds a specified amount.
• ABC
*NACV – Net Annual Charge Volume (i.e. annual spend with Amex)
