Indian Corporates Take To Online Travel Planning

FE Business Traveller: Indian corporates are no longer just gleaning websites for information. They are freezing travel plans online. Travel websites had their initial days in the sun before the dotcom bust earlier in the new millennium took most of them under. They are now back in earnest.
Travelportindia, the web extension of Travel Port Holidays India Ltd, has in the last four years been offering customised interfaces to the companies they service. “Each of our clients have access to a website that is customised as per their need assessments. We also have a specialised division for loyalty programme for corporates. The online interface for corporates exists in tandem with the brick and mortar establishment. We have helped corporates devise loyalty programmes that include a travel component in order to incentivise performance and target achievement,” said Heena Javed Akhtar, COO, Travel Port Holidays India Ltd.
“There are many tools already available and the best part is that the software can be customised to suit corporations’ independent needs. Many corporations being serviced by professional corporate travel agents are already using the Internet but this has not been quantified in India,” said Gautam Chadha, chairman and CEO, Journeymartindia.com.
