Companies Rethink Corporate Travel: Page 4 of 4

Abernathy says that American Express has already seen calls into the corporate travel office picking up this week. She adds that companies had already started cutting back on travel prior to September 11, and that the terrorist attacks have only exacerbated the situation.

The events of September 11, 2001, are still on the minds of many business travelers.

"I fly all the time for work," says Frederic Thepot, director of business development for Dynarc, who was stranded in San Jose the week of the attacks. "I never used to be worried. It certainly makes you think now, but I still have to travel."
