## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-10-15 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> ## My actual shortlist
> 
> **1. Navan** - my default recommendation for a US-based small business. Travel booking is free for companies with ≤300 employees with no per-trip fee and no trip cap, and it bundles booking, corporate cards, and expense in one system (expense is free for your first 5 expensing users, then $15/user/month). For most small teams, "one tool, no booking fee, good mobile app, 24/7 support" is simply the best value proposition on the market right now. ([navan.com/pricing](https://navan.com/pricing))
> 
> **2. Perk (formerly TravelPerk)** - the better pick if your team is Europe-based or globally distributed, or if your trips get cancelled a lot. It has the broadest inventory, including low-cost carriers (Ryanair, easyJet, Southwest) that GDS-only tools miss, plus FlexiPerk for refundable bookings. The tradeoff is the pricing model: a free Starter tier with 5 bookings/month then ~5% per booking, or $99 (Premium) / $299 (Pro) per month plus ~3% per booking. It rebranded from TravelPerk to Perk in November 2025, so don't be confused by the two names.
