With a long history of local CSR initiatives in our operating countries, BCD Travel is no stranger to CSR.  Our Principles look to the future, and reflect our owner BCD Holdings’ commitment to “leaving a legacy” for the “next next” generation.

Our CSR Principles focus on five key areas: ethical business practices, people, the community, the environment and privacy/data protection.

  • Ethical business practices - BCD Travel obeys the laws and regulations of the countries in which it operates, and conducts all business in an ethical manner.
