We are a Business Travel Agent

Let us show you how a Business Travel Agent can help small to mid-sized businesses save time and money

An independent, non-travel research firm recently issued the Topaz Report which demonstrates that traditional business travel agents save, on average, $61 per airline ticket compared to the major web sites and airline web sites. It is very expensive for a company to commit their people to spend the amount of time necessary on the web or phone to find the best value in airfare, car rentals and hotels. Surveys have proven that travelers still have trouble navigating the web sites looking for the best prices.

Empress Travel can cut through all of the clutter and find the best prices available, in most cases, in less than 10 minutes eliminating your staff's time spent on travel planning.

As your business travel agent, we work for you.  Unlike on-line travel sites and airline travel sites, we advocate for our clients by checking all airlines, hotels and cars, to find the travel supplier that best fills your needs and budget.

Most of all, if you have a problem while traveling or just need to make changes as your business travel needs change, unlike an on-line agency, you can contact us 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and talk to a live person who can help.

Unlike the major "Mega Travel Agencies" you are a "big" customer to us.  Personalized service that exceeds expectations is our goal.  Plus, our travel management fees are cheaper than the mega agencies.

Like mega agencies and on-line agencies, we do provide monthly reports so you will be sure your company's travel policies are maintained or for expense auditing purposes and we do have an on-line booking tool for those employees who do like to make their own travel plans.

Finally, our 40 years of experience as a business travel agency and our dedicated staff have the destination knowledge that allows us to make the travel experience more convenient for business travelers.

Contact us to discuss our services or for a travel management fee schedule or just give us a test to see if we are up to your standards.

Topaz Report

Travel Agents Save On Average $61 Per Airline Ticket Compared To Booking Your Ticket Yourself Online!

For the past eight years Topaz International has done comparison reviews of booking business travel on public internet websites versus booking via traditional travel agencies. Year after year, the results are similar, which might indicate nothing is really changing. Traditional travel agencies do a better job of saving money for their customers than on-line agencies and airline web sites.  For every $10 million of air travel purchased, a traditional travel agency will save $100,000 vs. an on-line agency.

Meetings and Incentives

Planning a Meeting, Incentive Trip or Special Event for Your Company Can Be a Major Headache!

That is why you should let Empress Travel plan and run your next corporate meeting, incentive trip or special event.

Many companies arrange meetings off-site or in away-cities to better reach old and potential clients or to put employees in a different learning environment.  Generally, one unlucky person in your office is delegated the responsibility of putting the meetings together and spends months and uncountable hours away from their real job.  Empress Travel can eliminate that unnecessary expense and not add any additional cost to your meeting.  We know how to put successful meetings together and negotiate with travel suppliers for the lowest rates.  Plus, we will be there at your meeting to deal with the problems that always come up.

Employees and clients appreciate travel as a reward for their sales or a thank you for their business.  That is why travel as an incentive is always a success.  The best part is the cost of the trip can be built into the sales incentive so the reward you give will not cost you anything.  Let us show you how we can make a travel incentive work for you.  We do it all from planning to motivating your target audience to running the event on-site., Plus, we know which destinations are best to work with and most attractive to your employees or clients.
