The Paradigm Shift in Corporate Travel
The corporate travel industry is undergoing a fundamental transformation. Traditional travel management approaches are being replaced by integrated, subscription-based Travel-as-a-Service (TaaS) models that promise greater flexibility, cost predictability, and personalization.
What is Travel-as-a-Service?
TaaS reimagines corporate travel as an integrated service rather than a series of transactional bookings. This approach combines technology, personalization, and subscription economics to create a seamless travel experience with predictable costs.
