The Relizon Company
"We’ve been very happy with Expedia Corporate Travel. We utilize both the online tool and agent support, but because the tool is so user friendly, we repeatedly experience a monthly online adoption rate in the lower 90 percent range."
"Since we’ve been with Expedia Corporate Travel, our average ticket price (as compared to 2003) was down by 26 percent in September 2004."
