2020 U.S.-Booked Air Volume: $10.8 million
Consolidated U.S. TMC: FCM
BTN estimates that consumer goods company P&G’s
U.S.-booked air volume was $10.8 million in 2020, a fraction of its $70 million
estimation for 2019. The company’s CEO David Taylor announced in July that he
would step down and be replaced on Nov. 1 by company veteran Jon Moeller.
Travel management company FCM announced in March 2021 that
P&G had selected it to manage the company’s travel programs in North
America and Europe. P&G will use FCM’s chatbot, Sam, for digital assistance
to business travelers. P&G’s travel objectives include sustainability,
diversity and establishing a program that supports the safety and wellbeing of
P&G travelers as duty travel recommences, according to FCM. The
implementation of the program will coincide with the expected return to travel
planned for the first quarter of 2022.
P&G reported 124,872 metric tons of carbon dioxide
equivalent emissions attributed to business travel in its 2020 Citizens Report.
This estimate includes commercial airline travel by employees that was managed
by the company’s primary outside travel agencies. Travel arranged by other
agencies was not covered in the calculation.
The company’s most recent fiscal year ended June 30, 2021.
P&G reported net earnings of $14.3 billion for the year compared with $13
billion in fiscal year 2020. As of June 30, the company had about 101,000
employees, an increase of approximately 2 percent from the prior year primarily
due to business growth.
