AWD Group: Your Partner in Event Travel and Logistics
At AWD Group, we go beyond venue bookings and catering. Travel is a critical component of any successful event. Whether you’re organising a national sales conference or a European leadership summit, your attendees’ journey sets the tone. Here are 12 expert ways that event travel management can enhance your next corporate event.
1. Creates a Professional First Impression
From airport pickups to welcome signage, well-managed travel shows your company’s attention to detail. It builds trust and sets expectations high from the moment attendees arrive.
2. Reduces Stress for Delegates
Coordinated transfers, accurate itineraries, and clear communication help attendees relax and focus on the purpose of the event, not the logistics.
3. Prevents Delays and Disruptions
We monitor travel patterns, weather conditions, and schedules to plan routes and alternatives. This minimises the risk of missed connections or late arrivals.
4. Supports International and Multi-Venue Events
AWD Group has experience managing events across borders. We handle passport requirements, customs, local transfers, and time zone coordination.
5. Allows for Personalisation
From business-class upgrades to tailored welcome packs, event travel can be personalised for VIPs or reward-based schemes.
6. Centralises Booking and Admin
Managing all flights, trains, car services, and hotel bookings through one system reduces admin and ensures consistency.
7. Enhances Safety and Compliance
We track attendance and manage emergency contacts, providing a safety net during travel and while onsite.
8. Improves Budget Control
Travel costs can spiral. AWD Group provides transparent quotes and negotiates group rates to maximise your return.
9. Supports Sustainability Goals
We help clients select greener travel options and consolidate transport routes, reducing the event’s environmental footprint.
10. Enhances Delegate Satisfaction
Smooth journeys contribute to a positive overall experience. Happy delegates are more engaged, productive, and appreciative.
11. Allows for Itinerary Integration
We synchronise travel plans with event agendas, ensuring delegates arrive on time for key sessions and are properly briefed.
12. Frees Up Internal Resources
Instead of assigning internal staff to manage travel, we handle everything. This frees your team to focus on delivering the best event possible.
Corporate Event Travel Coordination: Why It Matters
A poorly managed travel experience can derail even the best-planned event. Efficient coordination ensures your people arrive prepared, calm, and ready to engage.
AWD Group combines logistics expertise with concierge-level service to deliver smooth, memorable journeys for every delegate.
