Keeping business travellers safer, smarter and better informed: ntroducing Trip Risk Alerts 

Business travel has never been more essential - or more complex. Political shifts, industrial action, extreme weather, conflict, public health issues and unexpected operational disruptions can all affect trips with little or no warning.

And while organisations work hard to fulfil their duty of care, staying fully informed in real time is often the biggest challenge.

At Global Travel Management, we’ve always believed that traveller safety, awareness and confidence must come first. That’s why, for many years, we have proactively sent travellers and bookers timely risk alerts linked to their itineraries. These alerts have helped thousands of people navigate uncertain environments, plan ahead, avoid disruption and stay safe.

Today, we’re taking this a step further. 

Introducing Trip Risk Alerts - now available to all customer organisations

We’re excited to open up our Trip Risk Alerts service to any individual across our customer companies - not just travellers and bookers, but also those who manage travel, oversee budgets, write policy or hold responsibility for staff welfare and duty of care.

And the best part? It’s completely free!

Why we created Trip Risk Alerts

The landscape of business travel has changed. Organisations need accurate, relevant and timely information more than ever before - not in general terms, but specific to the destinations their people are travelling to.
Our goal is simple:

  • Support better-informed decision making

  • Enhance duty of care and risk management

  • Empower travellers and planners with clarity, not noise

  • Remove uncertainty before it becomes a problem 

When teams feel well-informed, they travel with greater confidence. When organisations have visibility of risk, they operate with greater resilience. Trip Risk Alerts exists to make both possible.

What Trip Risk Alerts cover

Each alert is carefully curated to highlight issues that may affect travel plans or traveller safety, including:

  • Political developments

  • Conflict, terrorism and regional security

  • Demonstrations, strikes and civil unrest 

  • Crime, corruption or safety-related concerns

  • Natural disasters and environmental risks

  • Health and medical issues

  • Airline, airport and transport disruption

  • And other issues that may impact trips, wellbeing or costs

Every alert is linked directly to a destination relevant to your organisation’s travellers - meaning you receive only what matters.

Who Benefits?

Trip Risk Alerts are designed for:

  • Travellers who want to stay safe and prepared

  • Travel bookers and planners who need to anticipate disruption

  • Finance teams focused on cost control and avoiding avoidable losses 

  • HR and risk professionals responsible for duty of care

  • Travel managers shaping policy and ensuring compliance

If your role intersects with business travel in any way, these alerts bring clarity and peace of mind.


We believe that knowledge is one of the most powerful tools in modern travel management. That’s why we are proud to make Trip Risk Alerts available at no cost, to anyone in your organisation who will benefit from them.
