The report, surveying travelers from the U.S., UK, and UAE, highlights that 45% of C-level executives lose between four and eight hours of work time due to inefficient travel plans.
Blacklane’s CEO, Dr. Jens Wohltorf, emphasized that luxury travel services, like chauffeur-driven vehicles, can alleviate this stress and improve productivity, especially as 51% of U.S. travelers are willing to pay out-of-pocket for such upgrades.
The rise of “bleisure” travel, where business and leisure are combined, is also a growing trend, with 90% of participants merging the two to reduce stress and enhance motivation.
Blacklane’s premium services aim to address these evolving business travel needs, offering solutions that enhance comfort, productivity, and well-being during trips.
