I think the breathless articles going around about the death of business travel are both premature and wildly overstated.
Business travel will return, probably at 60-80% the level of before the pandemic, a lot of the 'useless trips' travel will go away (maintaining existing business relationships, smaller training sessions, some tech support support trips) but zoom (et, al) is not a replacement for a face to face meetings and collaboration.
I think in the interim you'll see folks doing long term project work wanting to take fewer longer trips.
- paxys 6y agoI'd say the "useless trips" you mention made up WAY more than 20% of total business travel pre-pandemic.
