Dnata Travel Services has become the first Middle East company to offer online travel and expense (T&E) management solutions.

The online solution offered by Dnata, in conjunction with KDS and Spendvision, cuts costs and offers a hassle free means of managing travel booking and expense reimbursement, which typically represents over 52 per cent of the overall T&E process costs.

The solution captures all of the traveller’s preferences, summarises flight information based on corporate travel policies, tracks savings lost and allows for companies to monitor their travel spend.

"We are proud to offer this technology, which we anticipate will offer corporations savings of up to 20 per cent on their travel spend. Corporations in the Middle East will now be able to optimise their travel processes and slash travel costs, while providing added services and security to travellers," said Abdulla Tawakul, SVP corporate & regional network, Dnata Travel Services.

"A high proportion of companies experience internal cases of fraud – and many of those are expense related. This system allows for much tighter control over expense reimbursement, which at the same time making the process much quicker, easier and more accessible."-TradeArabia News Service
