Following 2018’s rollercoaster ride of legislative changes, including GDPR, the new Package Travel Regulations and the Payment Services Directive, what does 2019 have in store for business travel?

• The Package Travel Regulations introduced an exemption for travel arrangements purchased “on the basis of a general agreement”.  What is a general agreement and how do you get one?
   
• Is your business ready for a data breach?  Data security is not just about technology, the human element can be a key feature.  What are the specific vulnerabilities for business travel?
   
• Do your travellers book shared economy services?  Airbnb, Uber and other similar services are increasingly featuring in travel policies.  Are there any specific legal considerations which are unique to shared economy services?
   
• Traveller support and wellbeing has been highlighted as a key area of concern for corporate travel managers.  Do you know who is responsible for the traveller’s physical and mental health, and safety and security requirements, when they are travelling overseas?
   
• Brexit – what happens next?
