Benefits of Using a Temporary Phone Number for BCD travel
Manage your corporate travel through BCD Travel with an enhanced layer of privacy and control over your personal contact information. As a business traveler, your itinerary and contact details are shared across multiple systems, from airlines to hotels. Using a dedicated temporary number for your travel profile provides a crucial buffer, protecting your direct line from being exposed to a global network of suppliers.
Protect Your Direct Professional Line
Your primary mobile number is for your colleagues, clients, and family. When it's entered into a corporate travel profile, it can quickly become accessible to a wide range of third-party vendors. Using a virtual phone number allows you to receive essential travel alerts without giving your most important contact number to every hotel front desk and airline check-in system in the world, preventing unwanted follow-up and marketing calls.
A Secure and Centralized Communication Channel
A dedicated temporary number can act as a single, secure point of contact for all your travel-related SMS notifications, such as flight delays, gate changes, and hotel confirmations. This keeps your primary phone's inbox clean and ensures you can find critical travel information quickly, without it being buried under other messages. It simplifies and secures your communication while on the road.
A Firewall for Your Personal Security
High-frequency business travelers can be targets for scams. A temporary number acts as a firewall. It ensures your real, permanent number is not exposed in the event of a data breach at an airline or hotel chain, which are frequent targets. This protects you from sophisticated phishing attempts that prey on travelers, adding a vital layer of security to your corporate journeys.
