Good Time To Be A Business Traveler

This may actually be a good time to be a business traveler.

Industry experts and travelers say service has improved in many ways, prices are down, and the experience, in general, is often better than it has been in a long while.

“In a sense, it is easier and cheaper to be a business traveler these days,” said Henry H. Harteveldt, a travel analyst for Forrester Research. “There is an approximately 20 percent decline in the number of people traveling for business. Airlines are putting coach and premium-class service on domestic and international flights on sale. It’s easier to snag upgrades. And business travelers are generally able to get rooms at hotels they want at a decent price point.” Link.
