Staying Safe during Corporate Travel in 2022

Businesses across the globe are gradually transitioning back to pre-Covid19 travel rates, after the COVID 19 pandemic undoubtedly slowed down business travel previously. In fact, a study conducted by Business Travel News Europe (BTN) earlier this year found that domestic business travel in Europe is back to pre-pandemic levels from 2019. In light of this, we have curated a list of things that business travelers should keep in mind when on the go.

1) Incorporate General COVID-19 Safety Practices into Your Travels

By now, many of us are accustomed to the protocols put in place in order to stay safe during the pandemic, including regularly washing hands, covering one’s mouth with a mask, maintaining a safe distance from others, and avoiding large crowds. During air travel, while airlines have increased sanitization procedures, it is still important to wipe down your surroundings, keep your mask on and sanitize your hands. When arriving at hotels or accommodation, open windows in order to increase ventilation, and once again, make sure to wash hands regularly.

2) Be Conscious of Heightened Levels of Theft and Fraud

Due to the implications that the pandemic has had on the economy, individuals traveling to foreign countries are even more susceptible to theft and fraud. As stipulated by the World Travel Protection, business travelers are a cohort that is most at risk as “they’re among the few people still visiting other countries and tend to carry with them high-value items”. In order to prevent theft or fraud while traveling for business, make sure to keep a close eye on high-value items, avoid attracting the attention of others through wearing flashy items, and make sure that you do not connect to unsecured Wi-Fi servers, as this may result in hackers attempting to access confidential company data.

3) Stay Up to Date on Real-Time Data and Travel Policies

One valuable lesson that the pandemic has taught us is that conditions are capable of changing at any time, so it is crucial to stay informed and remain flexible. Before embarking on corporate travel, make sure to review guidelines and policies outlined on government websites for the respective country you are traveling to, and also stay up to date on developments regarding the pandemic in general.

4) Avoid Complex Travel Routes and Plans

It seems intuitive that the more exposure one has to different places and people, the more likely they are to be exposed to the COVID-19 virus. Moreover, many airlines may decide to cancel or reschedule flights due to changes related to COVID-19. In order to lessen exposure to the virus or cancellations and changes that may affect travel plans, it is important to pick a route that is simple and short, while adhering to your travel budget. A return to normalcy is warmly welcomed, but it’s important to stay vigilant while traveling for business in 2022.
