New Partnership! ello and ARIVO

Sydney, Australia, 13th March, 2026 ello, Australia and New Zealand's leading AI powered corporate travel booking platform is excited to announce a new partnership with ARIVO, expanding access to conversational travel booking technology for corporate travellers across Australia.

Through the partnership, ARIVO will offer its clients the ability to book and manage business travel using ello’s proprietary natural language platform. Instead of navigating traditional form-based booking tools, travellers and travel bookers can simply state what they need, with the platform returning compliant travel options in seconds.

ello replaces complex booking interfaces with a conversational approach to corporate travel. Travellers can request flights, hotels or itinerary changes through natural language, while company travel policies, approvals and controls remain fully enforced in the background.

For ARIVO’s corporate customers, this means a faster and more intuitive booking experience, while travel managers and procurement teams retain the visibility and policy compliance required to manage modern travel programs effectively.

ello’s Chief Technology Officer Ben Wheeler said the partnership reflects growing demand from travel management companies looking to modernise their corporate booking technology.

“Corporate travellers and bookers expect the same simplicity and speed they experience in consumer apps. By partnering with ARIVO, we’re bringing conversational booking technology to more Australian businesses while allowing travel managers and procurement teams to maintain full policy control and visibility." said Wheeler.

ARIVO has built a strong reputation for delivering personalised travel solutions and high-touch service to its clients. By integrating ello’s technology, the company will be able to complement its service-led model with a modern digital booking experience that reduces friction for travellers.

Xylene Young, Head of ARIVO Customer Relations said “Corporate travel today needs to balance efficiency, policy compliance and the human expertise organisations rely on when travel becomes complex. Our partnership with ello introduces a more intuitive booking experience for travellers, while allowing ARIVO to continue delivering the personalised support and corporate travel management our clients expect. It’s a positive step in combining modern booking technology with the service and advisory role travel agencies provide.”

The partnership continues ello’s rapid expansion across Australia and New Zealand's travel management sector, as more TMCs adopt it’s AI-powered booking platform to improve the traveller experience while increasing operational efficiency.
