According to the results, more than 50% of those surveyed mentioned Delta as one of their "preferred three airlines" when travelling for business. The YPB&R/Yankelovich Partners 2005 National Business Travel Monitor is reportedly a national survey of the travel habits, preferences and intentions of 1,200 active business travellers in the United States.
