The airline industry continues to adjust to the effects of the current economic meltdown, as well as escalating security threats and delays. Business travelers are especially vulnerable to changes in flight restrictions, cancellations, and shuttle vagaries. But according to a recent USA Today article, even with economic uncertainty, it is a good time for business travelers to fly.  Domestic fares are down to pre-2007 prices in many markets. Plus, the International Air Transport Association has reported that premium and business-class air travel declined 13.3% in December over the previous year. Airlines have responded by deeply discounting their fares. Businesses will continue to expand into remote and less-developed areas, and travelers must be covered for a wide range of risks.
