A Travel Security
Business travel is showing strong signs of a recovery after a time of uncertainty and those who are getting back on the road are finding themselves in a reassuringly security-conscious environment. Airlines, airports, hotels and governments have now placed travel safety high on their agendas and this can only have positive repercussions for those who travel most frequently -- business travelers. Biometrics -- a group of technologies that can identify individuals by their physical characteristics -- are being used to increase travel security and will change the way we travel forever.
B Recovery in Airline Industry
The airline industry is beginning to stabilize after a period of turmoil, say the latest figures by OAG, the world’s leading source of flight schedule information. The annual OAG report, which compares the number of flight schedules worldwide in one week in December 2003 with the same week in 2002, reported a 1% increase, equaling to more than 3,000 additional flights to airline schedules. The rise indicates a long-awaited recovery in business travel and a renewed confidence in the airline industry. The strongest growth was seen in the traffic to and from the Asia Pacific region, which jumped by 8%, while the number of flights within the region was also up by 6%.
C Asian Compaigns
Some Asian countries have launched campaigns aimed specifically at business visitors. Singapore, for example, is hoping to increase its number of business visitors from 1.25 million in 2003 to 1.8 million in 2005 through its US $15 million "Make It Singapore" campaign, launched in November 2003. "We want to draw more business visitors to Singapore through an attractive basket of incentives for event organizers," said a spokesperson. "The incentives include complimentary rooms from participating hotels, special discounts on food and beverage for functions, special rates from Singapore Airlines, among others."
D SMS service
Scandinavian Airlines (SAS) is now offering frequent travelers the chance to get up-to-date information on fright arrivals, departures, delays, seat availability and schedules by using SMS texting. The free service is available to members of its frequent flyer program EuroBonus and to travelers who have booked a Travel Pass or Travel Pass Corporate. Passengers who register for the service will automatically receive information on any irregularity affecting the departure and arrival time of the flights on which they are booked.
E Relax In Style
Passengers flying in JAL’s Executive Class "Seasons" from Tokyo to Chicago and Paris can now sleep more soundly in the airline’s Shell Flat Seat. The airline will roll out the seat on routes from Tokyo to Frankfurt, Los Angeles and San Francisco later in 2004. The shell shaped seat is designed for maximum privacy and relaxation and reclines 170 degrees. Later this year, JAL will also introduce the Connexion by Boeing high-speed broadband Internet and email service on beard flights, starting with its Tokyo-London route.
New advanced technologies make business travel safer.
