🌍 We've been exploring Europe in style with our trusted partners! Several of our Christopherson team members—Cheryl Piro, Stacie Prusha, GLP, Merrilee Rease, Marci Weir, Bryan Pickel, Gina Watts, Dawn Reeves, and Patrice Berman—were honored to join a remarkable familiarization trip hosted by our airline partner Lufthansa Group and hotel partner Accor. The journey began in business class aboard Austrian Airlines and Lufthansa’s new Allegris, offering firsthand insight into the evolving standards of comfort and service in European travel. ✈️ Upon arrival in Prague, where the team experienced the stunning Fairmont Golden Prague, recently reopened after a five-year renovation, followed by tours of Mama Shelter Prague and an unforgettable private visit to the Strahov Library with Daido Travel. 🏨 Next stop: Munich, where the group explored Accor’s 25hours Hotel The Royal Bavarian and the elegant Sofitel Munich Bayerpost—each showcasing exceptional design, hospitality, and heart. 🛌 💖 A heartfelt thank-you to Gerald Hoesl (Lufthansa Group), Mark Holdsworth (Accor), and Dana Brichtova (Daido Travel) for curating such an insightful journey. Experiences like these deepen our understanding of the traveler experience and strengthen our commitment to serving clients with excellence. #christophersonbusinesstravel #businesstravel #corporatetravel #accorhotels #lufthansa #FAMtrip #travelmanagement #prague #munich

When it comes to travel program decisions, perspectives don’t always align. According to SAP Concur's 7th Annual Global Business Travel Report: 🔹 28% of business travelers think they have the most influence 🔹 43% of travel managers feel they hold the most sway 🔹 69% of CFOs believe they make the travel program decisions The result? A three-way pull between those who travel, those who manage, and those who control the budget. At Christopherson, we see the strongest programs built when finance, travel management, and travelers all have a voice. That means: ✅ Aligning program goals with financial strategy ✅ Giving travel managers the tools and data to act strategically ✅ Listening closely to traveler feedback to shape policies and tools #christophersonbusinesstravel #businesstravel #corporatetravel #travelmanagement #travelprograms #travelmanagementcompany
