According to the Business Travel Show, the crisis has accelerated the integration of sustainable development into travel policies.

Admittedly, not everything is rosy in the current business travel landscape, but business travel today is a little 'greener' than it used to be. At least, that's what a study recently published by the Business Travel Show Europe suggests. The London-based business travel event surveyed more than 300 travel buyers across Europe during July. Of these, 62% mentioned the implementation of sustainable travel policies. The crisis is thought to have contributed significantly to this trend, with 40% of these policies having been put in place since the Covid crisis. In addition, 23% of buyers are planning to launch a sustainable travel programme for their company. In addition, one in five travel buyers (20%) say they rely on their business travel agency to ensure that their travel programme is sustainable.

" We need to help our customers make the right travel choices by providing clear data on the impact of their journeys. We also need collaboration between supply chains across the sector to reinforce the importance of sustainability and minimise end-to-end impact. "he continues.
