2023 U.S.-Booked Air Volume: $77 million
Consolidated U.S. TMC: CWT

BTN estimates retailer Walmart’s U.S.-booked air volume increased year over year in 2023.

The company in late 2023 revealed that it had become a client of Spotnana via CWT’s partnership with the travel management technology provider. The relationship with the challenger corporate travel booking and management technology platform was being phased in, initially with a group of U.S.-based travelers. Walmart said it was shifting to Spotnana to improve air ticket pricing and servicing by gaining access to New Distribution Capability-based content. 

U.S. media sources have reported that Walmart has told staff they must now work at a company location at least most of the time, although they are permitted to continue working remotely some days in the week if they wish. The company employed 2.1 million “associates,” as it refers to them, in 2023, of which 1.6 million were based in the United States.

Revenue for 2023 rose 6 percent year over year to $648 billion.
