Corporate travel
Corporate Booking Engine and Self-Booking Tool
Let employees book inside company rules, route the exceptions through approval, and keep every corporate booking in one place.
Corporate travel fails when the booking tool ignores the policy, or when the policy makes the tool unusable. Aerobit's corporate channel is built so the rules live in the platform: what an employee may book, what needs approval, and who pays for it.
Availability: Corporate travel is a planned extension of the Aerobit platform, built on the same flight engine, pricing rules and approval-style controls used for agencies. The policy, approval and reporting features described here show the direction of the corporate channel. Which of them are live depends on your deployment, so ask us what is available now before you plan around it.
Self-booking inside policy
A self-booking tool (SBT) for employees, with the company's negotiated content and policy applied at search time rather than corrected afterwards.
- Travel policy applied to what the traveller can see and select
- Corporate fares and contracted hotels alongside public content
- Traveller profiles and frequently used trips
Approval workflows
Out-of-policy or high-value trips are routed for approval before ticketing, with the decision recorded against the booking.
- Approval routing before the booking is confirmed
- Cost centres, departments and reference fields captured at booking
- A booking record that shows what was approved and by whom
Right-sized for SMEs and TMCs
A small company needs the same controls as a large one, without the overhead. Travel management companies can run many corporate clients on one platform, each with its own policy, content and approval structure.
What travel policy actually controls
Policy only works when it is applied where the traveller makes the choice. Aerobit applies the company's rules during search and selection, so an employee sees what they are allowed to book rather than being corrected afterwards.
- Cabin and fare-type rules by route, duration or grade
- Price thresholds that trigger approval instead of blocking the trip
- Preferred airlines and hotels from the company's own agreements
- Advance-booking rules that protect the company's costs
Reporting finance teams can use
Corporate travel is a cost centre, and the booking system is where the data originates. Cost centres, departments, project codes and approvers are captured at booking time, so reporting does not depend on reconstructing trips from invoices later.
Right-sized for SMEs
Small and mid-sized companies in the GCC often run travel through one administrator and a WhatsApp thread. The value of a self-booking tool for them is not enterprise reporting: it is fewer calls, bookings that follow a simple rule set, and a record of who approved what. Aerobit's corporate channel can be configured that lightly, and expanded when the business grows.
