21st Century Fox is moving
its travel program into the virtual world. The media conglomerate selected a
virtual payment product for hotel direct billing in 2015 and is setting up the
program this year. The company also has been automating the central billing
accounts for its air, hotel and car programs. The company is working to move
more of its travel agency business online. Travelers use Sabre’s GetThere tool
in the United States, and 87 percent of their air volume went through that tool
in 2015. That’s an uptick from the prior year, after booking mandates. This
year, 21st Century Fox is working to deploy International SOS traveler
tracking.
The company’s U.S.-booked
air volume dropped 6.2 percent in 2015. Having renewed contracts with secondary
airlines last year, it’s renegotiating its primary airline deals this year. It
implemented a new primary car rental supplier last year, as well. HRG, 21st
Century Fox’s consolidated U.S. TMC, also serves the United Kingdom.
