FCM Travel Launches Multi-Booking Channel “Approvals” Feature

FCM Travel, the flagship large market corporate division of Flight Centre Travel Group, has announced the launch of its “Approvals” feature on its proprietary FCM Platform. The announcement took place at the Global Business Travel Association’s annual convention in Atlanta, GA.

According to John Morhous, chief experience officer, Flight Centre Travel Group – Corporate Brands, the FCM Approvals feature aims to simplify travel approvals for customers.  “Our integrated approval platform centralizes control over all travel activities by mirroring online and offline approvals flows," he said. "Designed for cross-online booking tools and cross-market approval flows, it provides a consistent, efficient process for managing travel approvals across different booking channels and countries.”

Here’s what the new feature will mean to customers:

  • Enhanced control – One unified platform that streamlines all travel approvals, ensures every decision aligns with company policies and budgets
  • Global compliance and local adaptability – Designed to simplify cross-booking channel, cross-border approval flows while also allowing for regional rule customization to ensure safety and compliance
  • Harmonized operations – Automated process, omni-channel access, saving up to two hours in offline flow, reducing manual dependencies and simplifying policy updates across platforms

FCM Approvals will launch its first iteration of the functionality in 35 countries. The rollout plan includes deployment across more markets with the aim of achieving global availability in the future.

The rollout will start with FCM’s existing customer base, with the new calendar year earmarked to onboard new customers.
