Travel Agency The resurgence of online corporate travel can be partially attributed to the fact that business executives, including chief financial officers (CFOs), are now playing a more active role in corporate travel, according to GetThere`s recent survey. The vast majority of respondents indicated that executives are now more involved in encouraging their employees to participate in a managed travel program, thus enforcing money-saving contracts and travel policies.
