When things get tough, we step up.

We helped a client save nearly $60K after a family missed their flight because of an unexpected illness. Thanks to travel manager, Kelly Barncastle’s dedication and teamwork, they got the best outcome possible.
It’s moments like these that remind us why we do what we do.

Check out the story below:

A family of five had booked four seats in First Class and one in Business Class, traveling internationally to NYC.  One of the kids got sick and was admitted to the hospital.  The whole group missed the flight, which had been booked under non-refundable/discounted First and Business Class tickets.

Because they hadn’t shown up for their flight, the airline marked them as no-show, and they would have been subject to forfeiting the fares.

The agent worked with the airline, and they agreed to issue a full refund waiver. With the waiver, we saved the client $57k in what would have been the forfeited fares.
Kelly stayed online well past 10pm to make sure it was all taken care of, delivering a resolution the client knew they couldn’t have done alone. That’s business travel, the Corporate Traveler way.
