Good Afternoon,
I was wondering if any one would be willing to share any recommendations or referrals for a travel provider specifically for higher education? Our current travel provider is not living up to our contract so I am looking to vet other potential options.
Let me know if you need any additional information from me otherwise I hope to hear back. Thanks!!!

VCU currently uses Christopherson Business Travel. Prior to COVID, when they were fully staffed, they had a dedicated Higher Ed team. I believe they have changed this since COVID. We have seen delays since travel has opened back up, but this is something across the board so I don't hold it against them.
Vanderbilt uses World Travel Service (a BCD Travel affiliate) based in Knoxville, Tenn for university travel. We have a mandated program and have been extremely happy with them. We just when out for RFP in 2021 and the Travel Committee unanimously selected them again.
VU Athletics uses Anthony Travel and are extremely happy with them as well.
Thank you for these replies and information! I'll will add them to my list to look into and vet.
Oh does anyone work with a Travel Provider that partners with Workday ERP system?
