CWT Enhances Travel Guidance Tool

CWT has added new features to its Travel Essentials guidance platform, a publicly accessible database providing information on Covid-19-related travel restrictions and entry requirements, which the travel management giant launched in July 2020.

The new features include support for more than 15 different languages and downloadable and shareable entry and passenger locator forms, health questionnaires and Covid-19 test result declarations. Meanwhile, a new vaccination status filter separately displays relevant entry requirements for vaccinated and unvaccinated travelers, while a revamped layout offers easier navigation, CWT said.

The Travel Essentials enhancements come amid what CWT called increased use of the platform in recent months, an indication that corporate travel activity is beginning to resume in the wake of the pandemic. The number of daily searches on the Travel Essentials platform has increased by 28 percent since the beginning of 2021, according to CWT.
