How to Prepare for Unexpected Events on a Business Trip

A SAP Concur blog post offers advice for handling unexpected events on business trips, covering natural disasters, political unrest, flight delays and cancellations, and lost luggage. It recommends using Concur Locate to receive safety alerts and request assistance, sharing itineraries via TripIt, and registering with local embassies abroad (U.S. citizens can use the STEP program). TripIt Pro provides delay and cancellation alerts and alternate flight searches. It also advises avoiding checked luggage when possible and knowing airline baggage compensation rules.
