Adding value throughout the booking process

Humanitarian and Missionary Air Fares

As a specialist in humanitarian and missionary travel, our consultants bring a wealth of experience and understanding to often complex travel requirements. We know our clients don’t want to be waiting at a train station for hours or rushing to another airport for a connecting flight, so we focus on reducing the stress of travel for our clients, as much as we do the cost.

Our Executive Chair negotiated the first humanitarian air fares in the UK over 30 years ago, and created academic fares 10 years later. As a result, our clients benefit from the widest range of humanitarian, missionary and negotiated fares available – one of the reasons why we’re the leading travel management company working in this field.

We continually benchmark our humanitarian, missionary and negotiated fares against published fares and low-cost carriers to make sure we're always getting the best deal for our customers.
