At a glance
The Corporate Event Travel Checklist is a four page guide for people who organize business events. It covers eight areas: attendee information, flights and ground transport, room blocks and the venue, meals and catering, badges and credentials, communicating with each attendee, onsite contingencies, and the follow-up after the event. A corporate event travel advisor manages every logistical layer of a business event, flights, transfers, accommodations, meals, and communication, for every individual attendee, not just the group as a whole. This checklist was written by Nicci Grotefendt of Travel GHR, based in Edwardsville, Illinois.
