Millennial Business Travelers

Corporate travel managers might be missing opportunities to connect with Millennials.

As Millennial workers—loosely defined as 21 to 30 years old—continue to enter the workplace, traditional management is struggling to figure out how this new generation fits into the workforce and what accommodations need to be made for them.

In February, AirPlus brought those questions to nearly 100 corporate travel managers, drilling down to assess how Millennial travelers compare to other generations in the workforce when it comes to travel policy compliance and how corporate travel managers are responding to these young employees.

The majority of corporate travel manager respondents—56 percent—have not looked at compliance rates by age. Surprisingly, those who have looked at the data report conflicting results: 11 percent say they have data that compliance rates are the same among differing age groups while 5 percent say they have data that Millennials are more compliant
and 4 percent say they have data that Millennials are less compliant. A similar split is seen among those who have not done hard research: 11 percent suspect Millennials are more compliant and 12 percent suspect Millennials are less compliant.
