Two companies I've worked in/with used to fly folks from distributed teams to meet for a few days and brainstorm. They found the process of shared white boarding to be worth it. Necessity inspired our team to create https://sharetheboard.com https://sharetheboard.com - since then we've found BOTH a drop in such cases (fly to whiteboard) AND an increase in shared (remote) white boarding. That said, I don't believe business travel will ever go away - it's built into the process, as long as humans are running the place.
