Corporate Traveler has added a new Trip Proposals feature to its Melon booking platform that the travel management company says simplifies communication and booking for travel arrangers.
With Trip Proposals, travel arrangers can create travel plans from preferred flight and accommodation offerings and email that plan to the traveler. The traveler can view the plan—including key details and visual elements—without logging in to Melon, and once they confirm the trip, the arranger can book from that saved plan, according to Corporate Traveler. For groups, arrangers can add other travelers to the same proposal.
The feature "reduces time spent on planning and minimizes duplication with its direct planning-to-confirmation booking processes," Corporate Traveler global managing director Tom Walley said in a statement. "It also delivers a polished and professional view of travel options to travelers, ensuring all necessary details are shown in a single, accessible communication format, enhancing convenience and clarity."
Corporate Traveler, which focuses on small and midsize clients, is a division of Flight Centre Travel Group.
