What is a travel profile and why it matters
Summary
A travel profile is a personalized record that stores all essential travel-related information for travelers booking trips through an organization. Instead of repeatedly entering personal and booking details for every trip, your travel profile keeps this information saved and available, making the travel booking process faster, more efficient, and tailored to you.
