business trip
Professional journey away
A business trip is travel undertaken for work purposes rather than leisure—attending meetings, visiting clients, inspecting facilities, or representing a company at conferences.
The term distinguishes professional travel from vacation: I'm in Chicago on a business trip.
Business trips often involve expense accounts, hotel stays, and the peculiar exhaustion of airport terminals.
