“We want to ensure a more tailored service for business travellers via our technology and the features we have added to Amadeus e-Travel Management 12.0 respond to this,” said Frank Palapies, Amadeus’ Head of Global Commercial Operations. “Business travellers with mobility impairments – whether temporary or permanent – should not have to spend any more time than other travellers on booking special assistance. We want the corporate self-booking tool to cater to all business travellers needs while ensuring corporations reduce expenditure, without sacrificing quality.”
