Devoted to customer service and the principles of exceptional customer services

The latest issue of Business Week has an article that talks about these new airlines that are popping up.  They’re targeted towards business travelers and industry insiders are wondering whether or not they’ll survive.  Lower prices and a comfier ride are things they offer, but is that what business travelers want?

Michael Boyd, an aviation consultant says:

“...what passengers really want is frequency and convenience.”  

Joe Brancatelli over at USAToday says in an article he wrote last year:

“What we want from the frequent travel programs is perks: the recognition that we are loyal, profitable customers; the upgrades and preferred treatment; a slightly more comfortable life while we do business on the road; and a simple "thank you" for emptying our wallets into their cash registers.”

What do you look for in an airline when doing business travel?
