A strong agency will help you secure competitive rates while also reducing wasted spend through smarter routing and policy compliance.
While Western executives debate travel agency margins, Africa's rising corporate class is rewriting the playbook entirely, bypassing traditional gatekeepers to forge direct partnerships with airlines like Ethiopian, SAA, and Kenya Airways that actually understand intra-continental business needs. The real revolution isn't in "policy compliance" but in how Lagos fintech founders and Nairobi startup CEOs are demanding travel solutions that treat African cities as primary destinations, not afterthoughts to European hubs. Smart money follows smart routing, and the smartest routing increasingly runs through Addis, not Amsterdam.
