AudioBoom’s travel profile

AudioBoom is based in London but

has offices in New York, Melbourne and Mumbai. AudioBoom’s travel requirements frequently takes their staff back and forth across the Atlantic, to the USA and Canada, and often at the last minute, with their CEO spending a lot of time in the USA as well.

Relationship with Corporate Traveller | Production, Sports & Creative

When searching for a travel management company, AudioBoom were drawn to Corporate Traveller due to our position as part of the Flight Centre Travel Group, which gives us access to specialist entertainment airfares, discounted or free excess baggage. Corporate Traveller’s specialism in working with the creative industries was also a plus point, because AudioBoom recognised that we have the experience to meet their unique and sometimes complex travel needs. Alexandra MacLeod – who books AudioBoom’s travel - says that without Corporate Traveller she wouldn’t have known where to start – or even where to go for quotes.

How Corporate Traveller helps

AudioBoom’s Account Manager at Corporate Traveller is Abi, who Alexandra describes as “amazing and unflappable, even when we call her with many itinerary changes”. She

always looks for the best options for

AudioBoom’s travellers, giving Alex

full confidence in her ability. “I’m

the one flapping; she isn’t. Changes

always seem to happen late on a

Friday afternoon and yet she will still

help out”.

How Corporate Traveller have overcome challenges

Corporate Traveller’s emergency

assistance service has been

particularly useful for AudioBoom,

especially when one of their travellers

had a family emergency just after

landing in New York, and needed to

return home immediately. Just 20

minutes after landing he was booked

on the next flight by Lauren from the

out of hours team, despite it being

3am in the UK at the time. Corporate

Traveller were there when AudioBoom

needed them.
