Getting results, satisfying clients
At Travelocity Business, our clients don’t just compliment our results. They testify.
Great Savings
When Nancy Garner joined Extreme Networks as the company’s corporate travel manager, there were few travel policies. Garner tapped Travelocity Business to centralize bookings. As a result, the company cut travel costs by 40 percent.
“Since moving to the Travelocity Business solution, we’ve cut our travel costs without eliminating trips. We are still traveling the same number of total miles, but have reduced the travel budget by more than $1 million annually.”
Extra Mile Service
American Medical Association employees take about 3,200 trips a year, representing $2 million in annual travel spend. But they had never booked travel online. Travelocity Business made it easy for the AMA to use online tools, creating a 99 percent adoption rate in less than six months. And saving significant agency fees.
“We wanted to create a comfort level among travelers so they wouldn’t feel that moving to an online environment would come at a detriment to their travel needs. Travelocity Business helped us present the right image to travelers.”
Computer Associates International, Inc. (CA) is a $3 billion eBusiness-management software company headquartered in Long Island, New York with 15,000 employees worldwide. After implementing an extensive internal communications campaign to educate travelers about the tool’s benefits, travelers were pleased with the system because it was much easier to make reservations by accessing travel data via CA’s corporate intranet.
“We’re constantly looking to reduce costs and increase efficiencies. We felt Travelocity Business was focused on meeting our needs by treamlining the entire travel management process.”
The Lockheed Martin Corporation spends $230 million annually for air and classifies approximately 80,000 employees as business travelers. The largest provider of IT services, systems integration and training to the U.S. government called on Travelocity Business to customize a travel program specifically tailored to their needs and with a big-picture goal in mind: automate as much as possible.
"By selecting and transitioning to Travelocity Business®, Lockheed Martin has been able to move its travel program to the next level. We look to Travelocity Business, GetThere, and Sabre as horizontally integrated partners to provide Lockheed Martin with the most innovative travel services available today."
