As travel costs rise, many UK businesses are reviewing how they manage their corporate travel budgets. But cutting costs doesn’t mean cutting corners.
Business travel can be a valuable investment – but only if it’s well-managed. Small mistakes in booking, policy, or communication can lead to delays, cost overruns, and stressed-out travellers.
Here’s what to look for when choosing the right travel partner for your business:
A Travel Management Company (TMC) is a specialist agency that helps businesses organise, book, and manage their corporate travel. Whether it’s flights, hotels, trains, car hire, or travel policies — a TMC handles everything under one roof.

Starting from 1 September 2023, it will be necessary for you to carry valid photographic identification when embarking on UK domestic flights. This identification will be requested at specific points during your journey. Kindly note that failure to provide this identification could result in being unable to proceed with your travel plans.
While a passport is not mandatory for domestic travel within the UK, it is important to carry a form of photographic ID when flying with us. Acceptable forms of ID include:
For children under the age of 16, identification is not mandatory when traveling on domestic flights. However, the accompanying adult must possess photographic identification and be able to verify their own identity.
For unaccompanied children aged 14 and 15, identification will be required when traveling on domestic flights.
If you have any questions about these changes, please feel free to get in touch with the team here.
