Knowledge is Power
It’s a confusing time for business travellers right now. There are so many different travel restrictions in place. Governments across the world are applying varying criteria for the measurement and reporting of COVID-19 in their country. Conflicting information and sensationalised media reporting only adds to the anxiety.
In the current climate, while we can’t make solid travel recommends to you, we can give you all the information you need to make an informed choice… for you, your travellers and your organisation.
With our COVID-19 Trackers (below), we are aggregating all of that different information, analysing the data and presenting it to you in a simple, easy-to-use ‘heat’ map. Updated five times a day with direct data feeds from the World Health Organisation, global governments, immigration authorities, Oxford University and more, our fully interactive COVID-19 Tracker is designed to help you plan your organisation’s return to business travel.

How to use the Tracker Map and Country Planner
- Use the page buttons at the bottom of the map to switch between two different views:
– page 1: Board & Travel Restrictions Tracker
– page 2: Summary Data Table
– page 3: Country Planner (selectable)
– page 4: Government Stringency Controls - Use the Date Sider (on the right) to alter the date and see what restrictions were like at a certain time.
- Roll your cursor over each country to reveal a Pop-Up Data window, providing further information on that country.
- Use the blue Quick Look buttons to focus on a certain geographic area.
- The Country Planner (also presented below as a separate dashboard) is a great resource if you’re travelling to / or planning to go to a specific country.
For the best experience with the destination status tracker, we recommend using Chrome, Safari or Firefox web browsers.

The ROI of Business Travel
Business travel is often viewed as a cost to manage, especially in uncertain economic times, but when approached with clear intent, it becomes a powerful driver of business success. Purpose-driven travel strengthens relationships, accelerates revenue opportunities, and enables collaboration in ways that virtual interactions cannot fully replicate. By focusing on value rather than volume, organisations can unlock long-term growth, improve operational efficiency, and ensure every trip contributes meaningfully to strategic objectives.
How Leakage Can Derail Your Travel Programme (And How to Stop It)
Preventing leakage is a vitally important step in ensuring your travel policy works effectively and stands the test of time. In this article, we take a closer look into the causes of leakage and give practical advice on what you can do to prevent it.
Solving Travel and Expense Management Challenges
Travel and expense management remains a persistent challenge for many organisations. Traveller leakage, policy non-compliance, and fragmented expense processes often create unnecessary costs, administrative burden, and limited visibility over travel spend. These issues not only affect financial control but also increase risk and reduce the overall effectiveness of a managed travel programme.
This guide explores the most common problems businesses encounter when managing corporate travel and expenses and explains how a proactive partnership with a Travel Management Company (TMC) can help solve them. From encouraging adoption of centralised booking tools and enforcing travel policy to integrating modern expense management platforms and improving reporting, the right approach can transform the way your organisation travels – delivering stronger cost control, better data insights, and improved duty of care for your travellers.
