This is most certainly true, I'm not comfortable giving away my company name here but I can tell you it's a very big company and everyone hear would know the name. Travel budget across all departments including sales slashed tremendously the last two quarters. Again from what I have heard talking with clients etc, their budgets are also getting cut. Perhaps others here can share what's going on at your company, but if this is any indication, UA and the travel industry in general are going to be hurting.
