Labor Day marks a pause in business travel and a good moment to look ahead. Airfare is up 25.5%, putting stress on travelers and programs. A few smart moves can help protect your budget:

✅ Plan ahead: Book with extra lead time, and always confirm your full itinerary the day before departure.

✅ Arrive early: Give yourself a cushion. Aim to arrive at the airport at least a couple of hours before departure.

✅ Choose flexible options: When you book on myRiva, you can select refundable fares where available or add Allianz travel protection for coverage on non-refundable trip costs. That way, if plans change, your budget doesn’t take the hit!

Gee Mann, founder of TravlrID (branded as travel's "memory layer"), makes a sharp case in Business Travel News: too much travel AI sits on data that was never built to support it, and he's right that the industry keeps fighting the same fragmentation problem.

Here's where myRiva sees the metaphor differently. Sand can't patch a foundation alone, but you can mix it with cement and rebar to build one. The failure was never AI itself, it's using it to patch instead of build. Connect the data first, let the model see everything, and it holds up. myRiva's Intelligent Search runs on exactly that principle: no separate AI layer bolted on, just profile and policy data the model already has access to inside the marketplace.

So: is your travel AI running on concrete, or sand?

U.S. airfare is up 25.5% in a year. That's roughly seven times faster than nearly everything else you're buying.

In this month's brief, we break down what's behind the price surge, the tight booking windows this holiday season, and what dynamic pricing means for the hotel rates you're negotiating. Plus: how myRiva can help you score better ticket prices after you've already booked.

Just under half of all corporate travelers are always using their company's booking tool, according to a 2025 Deloitte study.

Now imagine what that does to your corporate negotiated rates. Every trip booked outside the channel is a discount your program paid to negotiate and never collected.

Trip Visibility powered by Traxo catches off-channel bookings before travel begins, which gives you a window to act before departure. With myRiva, it's a double failsafe. Travelers get a platform they actually want to use, and Traxo brings everyone else back in policy right away.🔒

More trips in channel means more negotiated rates captured, and more leverage on the next contract.

Meetings should be easier to plan, book, and manage. That's why myRiva partnered with Groups360 to launch myMeetings.

Choose the path that fits your event: a White-Glove Meeting Service, where a dedicated planner sources venues, negotiates group rates, and delivers curated proposals start to finish, or Self-Service Sourcing, where planners search real-time hotel inventory, hold room blocks, and export RFPs directly in their own workflow.

Deep summer travel can heat up fast.☀️ ✈️

Scorching temps, sudden storms, and packed airports can make delays and cancellations more likely when everyone is on the move. ️

🔒️That’s why travel protection from Allianz is available on myRiva, offering coverage for about 8% of the trip cost (not up to 100% like some refundable airline tickets).

It’s smarter protection for every trip.

Most corporate travel platforms own the booking, set the markup, and let loyalty points disappear.

myRiva is an open business travel marketplace. Supplier-direct rates alongside OTA options, and loyalty status visible before you book. 🔍
