Egencia is now offering corporate clients the opportunity
to display rail alternatives alongside air journeys in its booking display.
The travel management company’s new Air-Rail Display alerts
travellers and bookers using a banner when a rail alternative is available
for the same flight route. Users can then click through to see rail options with potentially lower carbon impact.
“As corporate travel returns,
it’s important that we support businesses and travellers to make
more eco-conscious decisions. Egencia’s step to create a
sustainability-focused tool providing a single solution to
see alternative journeys that produce less carbon at no extra time or
cost, helps support corporate sustainability targets
and gives travellers the confidence they need to make the
best travel choice for them,” said Sergio Fierens, vice president, technology
at Egencia.
