Which industries use offshore travel management services?

Marine and offshore travel isn't limited to one company type. It often includes energy, oil and gas, shipping, engineering, construction, and large-scale infrastructure projects. If you've got employees and/or offshore personnel moving between ports, vessels, or remote locations, chances are your corporate travel program is operating in marine travel management territory.

Can marine sector travel bookings be changed if schedules shift?

Yes, most of the time. If a specialised marine fare has been booked, these fares are only available to this industry and able to be booked via a travel management company (TMC). These are often refundable fares and come with no cancellation or change fees, among a bunch of other perks like extra baggage.

What kind of support is included in marine travel management?

Providing comprehensive travel solutions means you get a full wrap around 24/7 safety net, along with proactive account management, and dedicated consultants who will know offshore travel programs and the way people move inside out. It's a mix of tech, people, and global support working together to ensure seamless journeys. Combined with our onboarding specialists, your program will be fit from the start.

What kind of airlines or routes are typically used for offshore travel?

There's no single route map for marine travel services, it depends entirely on your operations and company footprint, which could include the United States, Europe, Australia, Qatar, or beyond. We work with all major airlines, regional carriers, and have charter options with specialist routing available when required.

How do you ensure travellers reach remote offshore locations on time?

It comes down to planning, visibility, and fast response. We know the unique challenges this industry faces and design itineraries around known rotation schedules, build in contingency options, and monitor travel in real time. If something changes, we'll move quickly to adjust routes and keep the rotation intact.
