How we help reduce 30% of business travel costs

Last Updated on: 6月 4, 2025 at 1:57 下午

Most companies still manage business travel the hard way. Despite 75% of businesses prioritising better travel processes, only 29% use corporate travel management software, missing out on smarter, more strategic savings.

At TruTrip, we help companies save up to 30% by focusing on the areas most overlooked, like traveller habits, booking behaviour, fare sourcing, and missed automation opportunities, turning everyday inefficiencies into real cost advantages.

Here’s how we help reduce 商务旅行费用: 

1. Behavioural Spend (17%)

One of the most overlooked levers in travel cost control is booking timing. The earlier your team books, the greater the savings:

• Booking just 1 day earlier can save ~3%
• 3 days earlier: ~7%
• 90 days in advance: up to 58% off

A flight priced at $250 a day before departure? Booked 90 days out, it could drop to $100.

With TruTrip’s AI-powered travel policies, companies can automate smarter booking behaviour, without hand-holding. Set dynamic lead times by trip type or budget, and let timely nudges do the work.

Examples in action:

• 90-day window for recurring trips like conferences
• 5-day approval buffer for urgent, predictable travel
• 8-day lead time for long-haul, high-budget routes, saving up to 15%

Early bookings don’t just cut costs, they increase flight options, seat availability, and better align with traveller preferences. Our data shows 15% of flights are already full just days before departure.

2. Process Waste (9%)

Delayed approvals can quietly drive up costs. Our data shows:

• 35% of bookings aren’t approved on the same day
• Fares can rise by up to 23% within just 48 hours

TruTrip’s rule-based approvals cut the lag. Trips are auto-routed and approved within hours, not days, capturing better fares and reducing admin friction.

Bonus: Less back-and-forth between managers, finance, and travellers means time saved across the board.

3. Good Fares (4%)

At TruTrip, we help you get more out of every travel dollar—no fluff, no hidden fees. Where legally allowed, we only apply the actual cost of your booking. No blended rates. No rounding up. Just transparent pricing at the time of booking.

We’re not just about cheaper tickets—we’re about real value. Our automation-first platform removes legacy inefficiencies, keeping costs low and workflows seamless, all while delivering a smoother travel experience.

Here’s how we keep pricing competitive and honest:

• No markups, ever: We pass on the exact rates from partners like Agoda, Booking.com, Bedsonline, and major airlines—no hidden fees.
• Smarter global sourcing: With six Points of Sale (and growing), we tap into localised fares for better regional rates.
• Exclusive NDC integrations: Especially in SEA, TruTrip gives you access to direct airline fares often missing from other platforms.
• Real costs, clearly shown: You pay what we pay. No estimates. No surprises.
