Summary

Business travel can open up new opportunities to grow your business - but keeping costs in check means managing it effectively.

      Business travel is exciting. It’s a chance for you to explore new opportunities and to build strong partnerships.

      Unwelcome distractions such as delays, diversions and cancellations can prevent you from focusing on what really matters, your business. Small things can add up to serious disruption and cost - but there are simple things you can do to manage your business travel effectively.

      With the American Express® Business Gold or Platinum Cards, not only will you have access to once in a life time events but you will also have peace of mind that should anything happen whilst travelling, you’re protected.1

      With your Business Platinum Card you can have access to over 1,100 airport lounges in more than 130 countries around the world2, allowing you to focus on what really matters, getting business done and making connections around the world.
