Minneapolis Millennium Hotel Site for Timely Discussion
On Tuesday December 4, 2001, Northwestern Travel Management
Corporate Account Services hosted 35 guests for a very
relevant conversation on corporate readiness in the
event of serious disruptions in air travel.
Participants agreed that the terrorist attacks of September
11 highlighted the successes and challenges experienced
by corporations when faced with the complete shutdown
of the nation's air infrastructure. Travel managers
had employees stuck in every corner of the world, with
no apparent way to get home.
