ACCORDING to 2008 Barometre of Business Travel Management, a survey which was commissioned by Amex Business Travel, travel and entertainment (T&E) spending has consolidated its position as the second largest controllable cost for companies within China in 2008. The Chinese business travel market continues to be largely driven by demand for domestic travel and is becoming better managed with more controls and methods to monitor travel expenses. The survey also showed that travel policy compliance has improved and is reinforced with new concerns regarding environmental issues and employee safety and security.

Travel woes during winter are not new - canceled flights, delays, missed connections, you name it, it's likely to happen. Being stranded at a hub airport is probably the last thing you wanted to happen. Boy, that airport floor is a might comfortable bed, right? What's worse, if you're delayed you tend to have to wait in monstrously long customer 'service' lines to find out what your fate is. What's even worse is finding out that you missed an alternative connection while you were waiting in line!

The online leisure and unmanaged business travel market in the U.S. has matured and supplier websites and online travel agencies (OTAs) appear to have reached relatively stable market share, according to PhoCusWright's Online Travel Overview Eighth Edition. The study finds that supplier sites account for 61 percent of the online market versus 39 percent for OTAs in 2008. This balance is projected to hold steady through 2010, although intense competition and tumultuous dynamics underlie this uneasy equilibrium. From 2003 to 2006, a period of strong overall growth for travel and the online market in particular, suppliers aggressively grew their online share through relentless marketing and incentives to drive consumers to book direct on their websites.

Choosing the best cellphone for foreign travel can be daunting. Is the iPhone the answer? Which BlackBerry -- Bold or Storm? Reliable phones that can be used overseas start at about $80. But beware the add-ons. Also, be sure to consider an "unlocked" phone (that is, one in which the phone's tiny ID card, its SIM card, can be switched out).
