Locomote

Locomote is a cloud-based business travel platform that lets companies approve, book and manage staff trips in one place. Its website now announces that Locomote has become Webjet Business Travel. The service targets organisations that want to move away from manual agent bookings and scattered booking tools.

What Locomote offers

• Online booking — travellers search and book trips themselves, with personalised results.
• Spend visibility — finance teams see spend, savings, approvals and policy compliance, and can adjust travel rules quickly.
• Reporting — travel reporting tools help managers measure how a travel programme is performing.
• Round-the-clock support — human travel agents are reachable by chat or phone at any hour.
• Traveller assistance — help is available if plans go wrong while people are away.

Who it works with

Teams of every size, from small businesses to enterprises. The site speaks to finance teams, travel bookers, operations and HR staff, and the business travellers themselves.
