According to Deloitte\u2019s travel outlook for 2024<\/a>, business leaders entered this year with the \u2018intent to tightly manage travel spend, with political and macroeconomic challenges contributing significantly to corporate travel\u2019s focus and costs will stay a key concern for the rest of this year\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cost saving is undoubtedly high on the agenda for businesses. We polled corporate travel buyers about where they anticipated the most pressure would be on their travel budgets this year<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More than half of respondents cited the price of flights (55%). Almost a quarter highlighted the cost of sustainable travel (23%). Hotels came in at 13% and 9% thought the added cost of meetings and events would add the most pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite increasing costs being a major concern for travel buyers, states the Global Business Travel Association\u2019s Business Travel Outlook Poll earlier this year<\/a>, business travel is still forecast to increase in volume this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
