GUIDE TO GETTING THE BEST AIRFARES

November 2, 2019

At Flight Centre Business Travel, our consultants and bookers are the heart and soul of the company; they know everything there is to know about business travel, which is why we’ve named them our Travel Experts. As experts, one question they get asked frequently by clients is: “how do I get the best airfares?” The answer to that, however, really depends on what a “best airfare” looks like for your company. Are you after the cheapest flights possible, regardless of which airline you fly with? Do you want flights with a preferred airline, that are depart at specific times or are from a preferred airport? Does your company’s travel policy allow for upgrades on long haul or overnight flights – and if so, are you looking for the best fares for Business or First Class?

Enhancing Pilots’ Occupational Safety and Health Protections

whitePaper | August 28, 2022

The airline flight deck is one of the most coveted workplaces, as can be attested to by the more than 100,000 pilots in the United States and Canada who work hard and sacrifice to earn a seat at the controls of a transport category airline aircraft. However, despite the attractiveness of an airline pilot career, the flight deck environment is very industrial in nature and can be the source of serious injuries and longterm health issues. As such, it needs protections for pilots that are commonly found in other industries. This white paper explores the various types of health and safety risks found on the flight deck and in the aircraft cabin and provides recommendations on ways to address identified inadequacies across a wide range of topics and health threats. These inadequacies need to be addressed by federal agencies charged with establishment and enforcement of rules and policies designed to protect airline pilots while carrying out their duties at work.
