If you travel for work, frequently or infrequently, you should be maximizing your personal travel benefits. This includes points, miles, and additional perks from elite status or loyalty programs. In this post, we’ll walk you through how Simple Trips for Business ensures you as a traveler get the best experience when you book travel, during your trips for work, and afterwards with the points and miles you earn.

Maintain travel benefits like Elite Status and earn loyalty points with Simple Trips for Business.

Save time booking your work travel

If you use Simple Trips for Business, you’ll save hours when it comes to booking your work travel in addition to earning the best travel benefits. The average traveler spends over two hours booking each trip. Think about how much time it takes you to search for flights, hotels, rental cars, and more. If you’re taking your first work trip ever, or if you travel once a week, you should be offloading the work of booking your trip. Get more time back in your day with this one easy change.

You may have access to an Office Manager, Receptionist, Executive Assistant, or similar who can help you book these trips, but it’s difficult to ensure they take your personal preferences into account when booking your trip. What if you’re a frequent traveler on United, but they book you on Delta even when a United flight is in policy? Yikes. With Simple Tips for Business, we’ve got your back. Best of all? We’re travel experts and we understand your concerns.

Earn travel benefits like loyalty points, miles, and elite status

Not only can you save time booking with Simple Trips, but you also get travel benefits like earning loyalty points and airline miles on flights and hotel bookings. We have direct relationships with most major hotel chains, and when you book through these you are guaranteed to get your miles and elite benefits. If for some reason you don’t, we’ll compensate you to make up for it. That’s how much we care about making sure you get what you care about when it comes to business travel.

In some cases, we have access to exclusive perks like room upgrades, spa credits, dining credits, and more. In these cases, we can help you decide which benefit program to choose, or how to best stack benefits for the best experience when you’re traveling.

Optimize your travel benefits for elite status and additional perks

In addition to earning points for your travel, we ensure every trip maximizes your elite status goals and programs. We get to know you and your preferences.
