 'Airport more important than airline' - poll of business travellers
The choice of airport is more important than choice of airline, according to a poll of business travellers.
The survey of 500 regular travellers by SAS found that 75% of respondents make business travel arrangements based on a particular airport preference and not on airlines.
Additionally, 65% of business travellers revealed that speed and efficiency of airport check-in procedures was crucial to their travel.
When travelling to the airport the majority still use private taxi (43%), with 35% using public transport, and 22% by private car.
Most prefer to maximize time at home when having to travel on business with 79% travelling from home to their departure airport, rather than going direct from the office.
The Scandinavian airline's UK & Ireland general manager Lars Ove-Filipson said: "These results demonstrate that time is crucial to today's business traveller. Airlines and airports which help travellers to maximise their time will win loyal customers."
