Pickyourtrail Launches 'FLUID' to Simplify Corporate Travel Planning

By Nishang Narayan

Published on December 9, 2024

Pickyourtrail, a leading international holiday brand, has launched FLUID, an innovative AI-powered platform designed to simplify corporate travel. With a focus on business-leisure (b-leisure) travel, FLUID addresses the unique challenges of managing corporate trips, automating bookings, reducing decision-making times, and ensuring GST compliance. By streamlining the travel process, the platform saves companies up to 27% in costs.

FLUID automates the entire travel process, cutting down transaction times significantly. With its proprietary Gen-AI technology, FLUID completes bookings in just 2.5 minutes, a process that traditionally takes about 72 hours and up to 19 emails. Additionally, FLUID accelerates approval times by 95%, ensuring that companies stay within their travel budgets and policies across both domestic and international routes.

The growing demand for efficient corporate travel management comes as India’s business travel is projected to grow by 18.3% in 2024. As remote work, team outings, and b-leisure travel rise, companies face increased complexity in planning and managing trips. FLUID addresses these needs by providing a cost-effective, tech-driven solution that enhances the booking experience and supports evolving employee preferences.

Hari Ganapathy, Co-Founder of Pickyourtrail, remarked, “The growth in business travel reflects a growing economy. While remote work became more common, in-person meetings are essential for building meaningful connections. As companies rethink their travel strategies, FLUID addresses the need for a cost-effective, tech-driven solution.”

FLUID has already processed 50,000 trips, automating 96% of bookings and ensuring 100% GST compliance. Trusted by over 30 mid-tier and large corporates in sectors like SaaS, manufacturing, and pharma, FLUID is transforming corporate travel management by significantly reducing costs and improving efficiency.

Etihad and Vietnam Airlines Announce New Codeshare and Loyalty Partnership

By Manu Vardhan Kannan

Published on November 23, 2025

Etihad Airways and Vietnam Airlines have taken their partnership forward with the launch of a new codeshare agreement. This move builds on Etihad’s recently introduced Abu Dhabi–Hanoi service, creating smoother travel options between the UAE and Vietnam.

With this partnership, Etihad guests can now book onward journeys to major domestic destinations in Vietnam as well as popular cities across Asia, all on a single ticket. Travellers also benefit from one check-in and automatic baggage transfer, making Abu Dhabi an easy connection point to the Middle East, Europe, and Africa.

Arik De, Chief Revenue and Commercial Officer, Etihad Airways, said: "This partnership with Vietnam Airlines delivers significant value to our guests by unlocking access to some of Asia's most dynamic and popular destinations. Our new Abu Dhabi-Hanoi service has been warmly received, and this codeshare agreement transforms it into a gateway to Vietnam's most exciting cities. Combined with our frequent flyer partnership, which enables loyalty members of both airlines to earn and redeem miles across our combined global networks, this collaboration underscores our commitment to providing our guests with greater flexibility, broader reach, and superior travel experiences."

From Vietnam Airlines’ perspective, this collaboration builds on the Memorandum of Understanding signed earlier. Nguyen Quang Trung, Director of Corporate Planning and Development, Vietnam Airlines, said: “Vietnam Airlines is pleased to advance our partnership with Etihad Airways through this new codeshare agreement, following the Memorandum of Understanding signed in 2024. The collaboration offers seamless access to Etihad’s network across the Middle East, Europe, and Africa, while allowing more travellers to experience Vietnam Airlines’ signature warmth and hospitality. Together with our expanded frequent-flyer partnership, this agreement enhances convenience, broadens destination choices, and strengthens tourism and economic ties between Vietnam and the UAE.”

The rollout of the codeshare will take place in phases. As it expands, passengers of Vietnam Airlines will gain access to six destinations beyond Abu Dhabi, Athens, Addis Ababa, Bahrain, Muscat, Cairo, and Istanbul, opening up a wider network across the Middle East, Europe, and Africa through Etihad’s strong connectivity.

Etihad and Vietnam Airlines already have a frequent flyer partnership in place. Launched in July 2025, it allows Etihad Guest and Lotus Miles members to earn and redeem miles across both airlines’ networks. This loyalty integration adds more value to the newly announced codeshare, giving travellers broader options and smoother travel experiences.
