The U.S. division of German pharmaceutical and life sciences company Bayer earned $43.5 billion in 2018. The multinational nature of Bayer's business meant that the majority of Bayer U.S.'s 2018 U.S.-booked volume, 66 percent, was for crossborder travel. In 2019, U.S.-point-of-sale air bookings are expected to reach $60 million, rebounding almost to 2017's $61 million. Bayer integrated its Monsanto subsidiary into its travel program in 2018. In 2019, Bayer U.S. plans to consolidate its global operations under a single TMC. BCD Travel currently handles 60 percent of U.S. business and CWT manages the rest. Also this year, Bayer U.S. is consolidating its card program. Bayer U.S. has a single global travel policy. Eighty percent of U.S.-booked tickets went through approved online tools, though 40 percent of those required agent assistance.
