Sit back. Relax. And let the tech do the work for you!
Travel technology that keeps you moving!
Does the mention of ‘business travel technology’ make you want to run for the hills? We get it! Especially since travel is probably just one small part of your job.
What if we tell you that setting up business travel technology for your company can be done in the blink of an eye? And that it can make your job a lot easier by automating the most boring and time-consuming tasks.
Hear us out:
1. The only travel assistant you’ll ever need
Changing border restrictions. Complicated entry requirements. COVID regulations.
Anyone who’s travelled post-pandemic will know that the red tape can feel overwhelming. And that staying up to date can become an uphill battle.
Let us introduce you to our AI-enabled app, FCM Mobile. We guarantee you that it will become the only travel assistant you’ll ever need.
After all, you’ll find everything you need in one place:
- A COVID-19 travel map to keep you up to date on outbreaks, border restrictions and travel lanes;
- A storage place for all your documents;
- A handy itinerary management tool;
- Travel alerts that will flag any critical travel disruptions and even send you notifications for check in, cancellations and changes; and
- The ability to check-in safe in the event of an emergency.
2. A helping hand behind the scenes
Are you a travel manager? Then, you’ll know exactly how important it is to keep your travellers safe - even from a distance. The good news is that FCM Mobile will lend you a helping hand. The app will help you:
- Use traveller tracking to locate your team members
- Send push notifications to travellers
- Load emergency contact details into your team’s phones
- Locate your travellers’ details to contact them in an emergency
- Receive notifications when one of your travellers may be at risk
Even if you’re away from your mobile, FCM can help you check travel restrictions. Our COVID-19 Travel Hub features a handy live travel map with all the possible travel restrictions.
3. Let’s talk numbers
You can’t control what you can’t see. So, make sure you consolidate your travel spend in one place to get a comprehensive 360 view.
Not sure how to do it? FCM will send you monthly reporting packed with interesting stats that will give you valuable insights:
- Which airlines are receiving your spend?
- To which destinations are you travelling?
- Which hotels are welcoming your travellers?
- Which cabin class are your travellers booking most?
You can use this data to help reduce your spend by changing traveller behaviour or seeking out benefits with hotels or airlines.
4. Make your profile pop
As much as your travellers want information, so too do airlines, hotels and even border forces. Make sure you have all the information handy from passport numbers, date of birth and nationality to seat preferences and dietary requirements.
It’s easy to keep your traveller profiles up to date on the FCM Hub. Better still? The information will automatically be pulled through into any bookings you make. And of course, the hub is fully compliant with PDPA standards.
5. Time to click ‘book’
For now, you’ll probably still want a ‘live’ consultant to give you support and assurance. An expert by your side who knows the travel restrictions and will help you manage travel.
But, as the world normalises, we know you’ll want to get back to self-booking – especially for straightforward point-to-point bookings. After all it’s simple, available 24 hours a day and easy to manage if you have the right tools in place.
FCM Hub powered by Cytric Lite is a simple booking tool. It allows anyone to complete a trip within 4 minutes from anywhere in the world. Just imagine how much time you could save. Contact your customer success manager to find out more.
