About Corporate Traveler:
Corporate Traveler offers a unique combination of expert advice, local personal service and global negotiating strength to maximize savings for business travel.

Established in 1993, Corporate Traveler, initially called Flight Centre Corporate, was the founding corporate brand of Flight Centre Limited.  Corporate Traveler was created to focus solely on the needs of small to medium enterprises (SME). The business quickly emerged as a successful brand, known for its specialized service and experienced consultants.

Following the acquisition of several corporate travel businesses between 1999 and 2003 Flight Centre Limited re-branded its stable of corporate brands, including Corporate Traveler, to FCm Travel Solutions. This created the largest global corporate travel and expense management company to be based in Australia. However with significant growth in the SME segment the decision was made to reintroduce Corporate Traveler to the market.  In recent years, among many other accolades, the company has been recognized as one of the top 10 travel management companies in the US!
