What is Bleisure?
‘Bleisure’ is a new travel trend that combines business travel with leisure activities. It generally means adding a few days to the beginning and/or end of a business trip to mix work with pleasure and get the most of your time on the road.
It’s not in the dictionary yet, but bleisure is astronomically rising as a common practice with millennials, currently the biggest working population in the world. And companies are supporting this shift, in fact 57% of companies now have a policy implemented for employees to extend their business trips for vacation time.
This freedom creates a new meaning for work-life balance that allows you to let out your inner adventurer and blur the boundaries of your work and personal life in any place, at any time.
For many of us, being tied to our smartphone or laptop means we can be readily accessible at every moment. As a result, when we travel for work, we are always on. Conference calls, emails, last minute proposals and demanding clients can dominate late nights, early mornings, and everything in-between.
Knowing that we can blend our responsibilities with exploration, entertainment, and relaxation on the road makes the pace of our ever-expanding world a lot more bearable and a lot more enticing. Incorporating leisure to business travel has even been shown to reduce travel-related stress and up overall productivity in the workforce.
Bleisure doesn’t have to be an isolating experience, either. Despite millennial marrying and having children later in life, more than half of bleisure travellers report take their spouses and families along for the ride. Its guilt-free travel that can replace or enhance a group vacation and make it more cost effective to live your holiday dreams.

Richard is very responsive. For more than two years he has been arranging my flights within Europe.
At this stage, I must mention that the work I am tasking him with is very difficult. Often I notify Richard briefly before I need a flight or a re-arrangement. My schedule is a mix of long term and short term arrangements, which sometimes are cancelled or postponed. Richard manages to get me on feasible flights and I always count on him. He is very reliable and I see him as a problem solver.
Even when the pressure is on, Richard remains an accountable and reliable solution provider. He always goes by the books and doesn’t take short-cuts. I like working with Richard, who hasn’t dropped the ball, no matter which problem I tasked him with.
He got me on time to Bilbao last week, although EW was messing around with my extra payment for the luggage, until the gate was closed.
Another time he got me back to Düsseldorf from Stockholm, after a couple of rearrangements due to a short term cancelling of a scheduled appointment.
Richard seems to use the whole runaway of tools and processes in order to get the job done. I am a happy client.
