Plan Ahead 
Montreal business travel is a commodity. It can be negotiated and purchased in quantity by small businesses just as it is by large corporations. Deals for airline, hotel, car-rental and corporate services can be negotiated. The key is to plan ahead for your needs with a going places travel agency. Strategies for Small Businesses
Project next year travel plans, from locations, to the estimated length of time you will be gone, to the amount of time you'll be going to the same place and make a calendar. Be sure to include conventions, trade-shows and industry related meetings and seminars you anticipate attending and product and service presentations you intend to give. Use this information to project next year's travel budget. It also can be used to devise a budget for the balance of the present year. Examine Last Year Travel Items 
Total the number of trips taken, the number of airlines, the number of nights spent in hotels and the number of car rentals or taxis. Amenities may be a trade-off. The health club and pool or the fax, computer and meeting facilities may offset a high hotel rate, but only if you use those facilities. Only negotiate for what you're going to use. Separate repeat trips to the same destination and compare your costs and your travel agency service fees. Consolidate All Your Travel Buying 
An alternative to direct negotiation is to use corporate travel services. Develop a contractual relationship with a corporate travel agent who specializes in business trips. Agents can save a business traveler 30% to 50% on airfares, hotels and car rentals. Agree, for one or two years, to deal exclusively with a single travel agency agent who offers corporate travel services. 
Although every corporate travel agent will advise advance booking of business trips, not all trips can be planned in advance. Some discount travel agencies air fares may be able to get a good fare at the last minute for a contract customer. Remember that rule of purchasing. Consolidating all your travel buying through a single agency travel world or domestic travel agency is the way to win discounts and deals, to keep spending data neat and to provide you with the best possible service while on the road.
