Touted as a straightforward app for business travelers, Lola continues to evolve to make corporate travel smoother and more efficient. In March, the company introduced a new group management tool designed to help organizations coordinate and control their business travel programs.
Launched under the Lola Works brand, the management tool gives travel managers flexible controls over spending limits, preferred cabin classes, and suggested budgets tailored to different traveler levels. Administrators can also require specific hotel amenities to be included in employee reservations, ensuring consistent standards across trips.
Over time, the tool collects and stores booking data so future hotel recommendations are informed by past pricing and property choices. When planning a new trip, the system highlights similarly priced properties and surfaces options that align with previous bookings, helping teams find consistent value and avoid surprises.
Beyond bookings and budgeting, travel managers can use the app to recommend local restaurants and attractions for employees at each destination. The platform also tracks arrivals, departures and other travel movements, giving managers visibility into itineraries and helping improve duty-of-care responsiveness.
By combining customization, historical data and simple user controls, Lola Works aims to simplify corporate travel management while keeping employees’ needs and company policies aligned. The update demonstrates how travel apps can streamline approvals, maintain cost discipline and improve the traveler experience without adding complexity to everyday business trips.
