Price optimization finds savings, keeps employees happy

Automatically get the best rates - even after booking

Uncover new savings opportunities that benefit even mature travel programs. Using innovative, behind-the-scenes technology, price optimization automatically searches for potential incremental savings due to price fluctuations on already booked flight and hotel reservations. It takes advantage of lower fares and rates on the same flights and at the same hotels through rebooking—no employee intervention required. This helps you deliver more return on investment (ROI) to your travel program without disrupting your employees or affecting their travel plans.
