BCD Travel becomes first travel management company to issue UATP

ATLANTA and WASHINGTON , Oct. 24, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- BCD Travel has become the first travel management company to issue UATP accounts. BCD will launch the payment program internally with a test group before making it available to all clients as early as Q1 2020.

UATP represents an innovative approach to travel payment, offering a focused payment and settlement process with hospitality industry players and touchpoints. Travelers can also use the cards for virtual payment solutions to book hotels.  

"At BCD Travel we're continually looking to innovate in technology, business models, processes and corporate culture," said Cees Batenburg , BCD Travel Global Chief Financial Officer. "Becoming the first TMC to issue UATP accounts is part of our broader effort to bring innovation to travel payment to improve both the traveler and travel buyer experience."

"The TMC Issuer Program was a next logical step in UATP's growth strategy, because TMCs are uniquely positioned to discuss form of payment with travel buyers," said Ralph Kaiser , president and CEO, UATP. "We worked with BCD Travel as our first TMC Issuer based on their payment process expertise and technological maturity. We anticipate the program will result in greater spend volume, an increased number of Subscribers and more entrenched relationships with key travel agency partners."

UATP payment is accepted by most of the world's airlines, several rail carriers, more than 30,000 ARC-accredited U.S. travel agency locations and 130,000 other agency locations around the globe.

Under the new UATP program, BCD's clients will instruct the TMC through traveler profiles to use their UATP account when booking travel with relevant merchants. Similar to UATP's Airline Issuers, BCD will help manage their clients' UATP program and provide customer service. The program is currently available only to subscribers in the U.S.

• Delta Air Lines : and BCD Travel sign industry-first global travel management sustainable fuel agreement

Delta Air Lines and BCD Travel USA LLC have signed the first-ever sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) agreement for a travel management company. The premier agreement helps address emissions from BCD employee travel and, as one of the largest travel management agencies in the world, bolsters the future of sustainability in the travel industry.

'With this partnership, we are seeing the entirety of the travel industry invested in creating a sustainable future for aviation,' said Delta's Amelia DeLuca, Managing Director - Sustainability. 'Travel management companies, especially those as globally focused as BCD Travel, are noting the importance of traveling sustainably. No one person or company or country alone can make the impact necessary to put our planet on a sustainable track for the future. This partnership is one way Delta is engaging major stakeholders driving toward their own goals of carbon neutral air travel, so we can make a real and lasting sustainable impact.'

This agreement represents a conceptual alignment within the travel industry to offset emissions from corporate traveler flights. This brings much-needed investment to the SAF market by building industry demand and SAF supply with the goal of decreasing the aviation industry's reliance on conventional jet fuel.

'As one of the largest travel management agencies in the world, we are responsible for helping pave the way for the next generation of travel that helps improve the communities in which we live and work,' said BCD's Kathy Jackson, V.P. and Executive Chair of Sustainability. 'It's part of our mission as a company to help people and companies travel smart and achieve more. And as we grow, we have an obligation to ourselves, our clients and our communities to do so sustainably.'

SAF is a critically important lever to reduce the life-cycle carbon emissions from aviation fuel. In its pure form, it can reduce life cycle carbon emissions up to 80 percent compared to petroleum-based jet fuel and is a key component in Delta's commitment to becoming carbon neutral . The collaboration with BCD Travel continues to underscore the significant positive environmental impact that can be achieved through collaboration.

About Delta Air Lines

From being the first and only U.S. airline to voluntarily cap greenhouse gas emissions at 2012 levels to last year's commitment to be the first carbon-neutral airline globally, Delta has a longstanding commitment to sustainable air travel. Delta was the No. 1 airline named among America's Most Sustainable Companies by Barron's in 2020, the only U.S. airline included in the 2021 S&P Global Sustainability Yearbook and has received the Vision for America Award by Keep America Beautiful and Captain Planet Foundation's Superhero Corporate Award . Delta has also earned a spot on the FTSE4Good Index for six consecutive years and the Dow Jones Sustainability North America Index for ten consecutive years.

What to look for in a Travel Management Company?

Finding the right Travel Management Company (TMC) to partner with your organization requires strategic planning, a methodical process and involvement from the right travel stakeholders. 

Travel buyers are responsible for how an organization uses travel and meetings to help achieve their broader goals. Partnering with the right TMC leads to improved safety, productivity and wellbeing for business travelers and streamlined processes and cost savings for your organization.

The TMC should demonstrate broad experience in managing travel for organizations like yours. Identify the specific services you need from them, such as ability to connect travel program strategy to company mission and purpose, sector experience, hotel program expertise, sustainability, travel policy compliance, risk management, or a defined approach to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DE&I).
