“At
one time I was logging over 100,000 miles a year as a management consultant. I
realized then that there was a need for specialized business travel news and
advice, and I became a crusader for the business travelers,” said McGinnis.
“THE TICKET PORTAL is really a culmination of more than ten years
working in the travel industry, cultivating relationships with the key players
and learning how to stay on top of the ever-changing environment.
I hope that people will find it a one-stop-shop for all their business
travel information needs.”
