Remote Team, One Destination: How to Streamline Air Travel Without Losing Your Mind

Remote work is great.

‍
Until it’s time to get everyone in the same room.

Quarterly offsite? Strategic planning retreat? The big team-building bash?

You’ve got 15 people in 10 cities... and suddenly you’re part-time Head of Flight Logistics.

‍

Don't worry. We got you.

‍

Here’s how to coordinate flights for your entire remote team like a pro — without the stress, spreadsheet chaos, or 2 a.m. seat maps.

‍

🚨 Step 1: Stop Letting Everyone Book Their Own Flights

This sounds “efficient.”
It’s not.

You’ll end up with:

• 9 arrival times
  
  
• 6 different airlines
  
  
• Someone flying into the wrong airport (yes, it happens)
  
  
• And absolutely zero control when things go sideways
  
  

Instead, centralize it.
Use a platform built for group corporate travel — like AllFly’s Quest — to handle all the moving pieces in one place.

‍

🧠 Step 2: Book Like a CFO (Plan Ahead)

Last-minute booking is where travel budgets go to die.
If you're booking flights 7 days before the event, you're paying 35–50% more. (Yeah, we ran the numbers.)

Give yourself at least:

• 60–90 days for domestic
  
  
• 90+ days for international or peak season
  
  

Lock in prices. Guarantee availability. Sleep at night.

‍

✍️ Step 3: Pick an Arrival Window

You don’t want one team member landing at 8 a.m. and another rolling in at midnight.
Pick a 2–3 hour window and coordinate arrivals.

Why it matters:

• One shuttle pickup instead of 5 Ubers
  
  
• Easier team welcome
  
  
• Less dead time (aka bored employees killing hours in the lobby)

‍

🧳 Step 4: Embrace (Some) Flexibility

Remote teams = chaos magnets.

Someone will miss their connection.
Someone will cancel.
Someone will realize their passport expired in 2019.

With AllFly’s group booking platform, you can:

• Change names on tickets
  
  
• Add new travelers after booking
  
  
• Pay in installments (yes, seriously)
  
  

Flexibility costs a little more, but it saves your neck when things go sideways.

‍

🌍 Step 5: Use Multi-City Coordination (The Right Way)

Booking 12 individual flights from 8 cities is a logistical nightmare.

With Quest by AllFly, you get:

• One single quote for your entire team
  
  
• Fare comparisons across departure cities
  
  
• A dedicated flight concierge (aka your new favorite person)
  
  

Think of it as control + efficiency + zen.

‍

📲 Step 6: Communicate Like a Travel Pro

Don’t let itineraries live in Slack purgatory.

Create a central hub with:

• Flight confirmations
  
  
• Arrival/departure times
  
  
• Ground transportation details
  
  
• Emergency contact info
  
  

Bonus: Drop it into a shared Google Doc or Notion page your team already uses.

‍

🛠️ Step 7: Use a Platform Built for This

AllFly’s Quest was made for companies that fly teams out to meet IRL.

It handles everything:

✅ Booking and quotes
✅ Multi-origin coordination
✅ Expense tracking
✅ Name changes
✅ 24/7 support

Oh, and it looks better than Concur. (We said what we said.)

‍

💰 Real Talk: You’ll Probably Save Money

Here’s the secret: group airfare isn’t always the cheapest, but it’s the smartest.

You’re not just paying for a seat. You’re paying for:

• Locked-in pricing
  
  
• Less risk
  
  
• Zero coordination headaches
  
  

And if that means a $20 difference? Worth it.

‍

👋 TL;DR

If you’re flying a remote team to one location, here’s the move:

• Don’t DIY
  
  
• Plan ahead
  
  
• Use a smart platform like AllFly
  
  
• Coordinate like a boss
  
  
• Sleep easy
  
  

No spreadsheets. No stress. Just smooth landings.
