TRAVEL MANAGEMENT

Hi Everyone,
I'm a Canadian Citizen traveling to a few major US cities in the next little while New York, Chicago, Boston and Los Angeles,and possibily Europe. If all goes well with this upcoming project I'll be doing this on a regular basis. I'm looking for a travel management company that can assist me with my travel needs as I'll be doing a great deal of flying within the few months. ANY SUGGESTION ?

First thing I'd do would be to find the most advantageous credit card for miles.

Topping for Elliot Spitzer. He used an high class agency to help with his travel 'needs', although I don't recall the exact name.

Will this be upscale travel that it's worthwhile for an agency to do (5* hotels etc) - or will it be more budget - in which case you'll have to pay for the services.

Frankly - most budget travel agents are more trouble than they're worth. (I gave up when I couldn't convince one agent there was St Pet in Russia as well as FL.)

(I do a lot of travel on business - upscale with a large company - and even so many of our corporate travel agents aren't that useful - only a few seem to know what they're doing.)
