The Future of International Travel in Business

International travel has long been a part of business dealings. In the distant past, we may have found that only the biggest and wealthiest firms could afford to travel to meet potential clients, suppliers, and customers. But as air travel became cheaper, the internet allowed contact to be made easily across the globe with potential trading partners. Unfortunately, we have seen a little bit of a slowdown in this trend in recent years, firstly due to protectionist tendencies such as the America First notion in the USA and Brexit over in the UK.

Digital Ticketing: The Challenges And Opportunities Facing PTOs And PTAs

Transport ticketing has rapidly evolved in the digital age. As recently as the 1990s, closed loop systems based around paper tickets or tokens were the norm. This resulted in a poor user experience. Lines to purchase tickets were often long, and turnstile throughput was inefficient. Today, passengers can use a smartcard or even their phone as their ticket, utilizing contactless and Near Field Communication (NFC) functionality to tap-and-go.
