Internal travel planning can often be fragmented and therefore maximum savings for both budgets and employee time are not achieved.

As a major Travel Management Company we have expertise in all areas of travel including air, rail, hotels and car hire enabling us to demonstrate significant savings and efficiency measures to you as an organisation.

With the growing market of "low cost carriers" and web-site based operators there are occasions when we will be unable to provide discounts beyond those available directly to you "on-line". We can however, by combining our valuable management time saving measures and efficient administration reconciliation reporting, achieve considerable increases in your employee's time efficiency.

Over recent years the travel industry has evolved from being commission earning to fee earning. Whereas historically we earned our profit margin as commission from the airline or hotel we now, as an Industry, charge fees to ensure you receive top quality independent advice.

How does this affect you? Why deal with an agent?

. ATP works on an "open book policy" whereby we have access to discounted net airfares with over 80 World Airlines. These fares provide considerable savings and are only available to approved partners.

. We are completely independent and provide the most competitive and appropriate solution to our client, not the highest commission earner.

. We work in the interests of our client and not our suppliers.

. We work on published transaction fees; therefore irrespective of the discounts we secure for you (up to 40%) our fees remain constant.

. You will be assured of our very highest levels of service and product awareness as we work in such a competitive market and value your business.

. We will charge a fee for booking "low cost" internet based airlines, however through our advanced technology can search all options instantly and therefore reduce your own staff's management time and improve administration reporting and billing to one source.

. We always consider the wider picture and believe that we can assist your travel bookers to work more efficiently and whilst saving valuable time also ensure that the most intelligent pricing options are considered.
