Top tips for business travellers

Flying hacks

With apps like FLIO and The Flight Tracker, you’ll never miss a flight again. They give you access to up-to-the-minute arrival and departure times. With FLIO, you can even find things faster at the airport, such as where to charge your laptop or phone, and the fastest route into the city. You can also book lounge access for more than 100 lounges around the world, as well as transport to and from airports.

Also, to streamline your airport experience, why not consider checking in online 24 hours before your flight. Many airlines offer this option, enabling you to print your own boarding pass and spend less time in the queue at the airport.
With the extra time you have, you can use your business class ticket or your travel rewards to gain access to an airport lounge.

Plan your itinerary

Smartphone and tablets bring a whole world of organisational tools to your fingertips, bringing simplified ways to plan your trip itinerary. Apps, like Google Trips enable you organise your various reservations and travel plans in one central place and, if you’re a Gmail user, Google Trips simply gathers your travel information and organises it automatically. It also comes with planning tools so that you can organise your day around meetings.
