Create a Trip Itinerary 

First of all, you should create an itinerary that you can stick to on your trip. This will give you and everyone on your team who you’re travelling with an idea of how the business trip is going to play out. You’re going to want everyone to remain on the same page and work together to get the most out of this trip. Make it as detailed as you feel it needs to be.

Keep Activities in a Confined Area if Possible

Keeping your activities on your business trip confined to a limited location is a good idea. If your trip is centered around a convention event, for example, it makes sense to locate your team near to the venue and plan events that center around it. That way, you’ll spend less time travelling between different locations. And wasted time is the last thing you want on a business trip.

Hire a Corporate Yacht and Network at Sea

If you want to really push the boat out you should, well, hire a boat for your corporate trip. A corporate yacht charter can set the tone for partying and networking for your team and the colleagues or clients you’re looking to impress during your trip. It’s a great way of having fun while also fulfilling the goals of your business. There’s nothing wrong with ticking both of those boxes.

Leave Room for Unexpected Activities

It’s also a good idea to leave a little room in your itinerary for plans and activities that you didn’t plan for. That way, you can get more out of the trip and allow for a little spontaneity. Some of the best opportunities on a business trip arise unexpectedly, and you have to be in a position to make the most out of that fact. So plan for that extra time and space.

Travel in Luxury

If you want this business trip to give your team a chance to bond, have an experience that’ll benefit them and offer them some fun and enjoyment, you need to travel in luxury. Treat your team and plan for them to travel in first class and stay in a place that’ll allow them to relax. The way in which you travel will impact the outcomes your team achieves.

The ultimate in luxury can be traveling by corporate jet charter. Check out sites like www.Jettly.com and you’ll be amazed at the amount of options for such travel.

So if you want to really make the most of your next business trip, be sure to make the most of the tips and ideas that we’ve discussed here today. You’ll achieve the outcomes you’re looking for with the right forward planning and a team of happy employees focused on your goals.
