AllFly's Stipend Mode is a tailored feature designed to simplify and enhance the travel booking process for corporate events.
This mode provides a flexible and efficient way for companies to manage travel budgets while offering employees freedom in choosing their flights. This mode is currently in testing and is only available to select accounts. Stipend mode may carry additional fees.
Here's a breakdown of how Stipend Mode operates for event travel:
Event Budget Allocation: When organizing an event, the company's administrators set up an allotted budget for each traveler's flight. This budget represents the amount the company is willing to contribute towards the flight cost.
Freedom of Choice: Travelers have the liberty to browse and select any flight they prefer for the event, regardless of the price. This flexibility allows travelers to choose flights that best match their preferences and schedules.
Self-managed Upgrades: If a traveler opts for a flight that exceeds the company-provided stipend, they are not restricted by the budget cap. Instead, they can simply pay the difference in fare at the time of checkout.
Example: If the company allocates $500 towards each traveler's flight for an incentive trip, and a traveler selects a flight costing $700, the traveler will be responsible for the additional $200 plus any applicable taxes and fees during the checkout process.
Stipend Mode is particularly beneficial for event travel, where varying preferences and needs can make standard travel arrangements challenging.
By offering a stipend, companies can ensure that travel budgets are adhered to while empowering their employees with the choice and flexibility to upgrade their travel experience as they see fit.
This feature underscores AllFly's commitment to providing innovative, user-centered solutions in corporate travel management.
