Leisure and Business Travel Blurring, Survey Finds
Corporate travelers are mixing business and pleasure, according a new survey.
Business travelers are eager to do more than pass through cities while working, they also want to experience the locale and take advantage of attractions and events that in the past were ignored.
With this in mind, hotels will need to start accommodating this change in behavior and offer their business guests options and information on how to make the most of their time in cities across the country.
Jean-Pierre Remy, President of Egencia said, “Today’s corporate traveler has more demands placed on them than ever before. As a result, the lines between business and leisure travel are blurring as business travellers are driven by balancing personal and professional needs.”
