On the move with M & C Travel Events

The friendly faces of M & C Travel Events’ Manuela Schiffner and Claudia Lüdi are familiar to everyone in the FIA WEC paddock, together with their efficient and enthusiastic team of travel and logistics specialists who travel to each of our rounds.

The German company, which was founded in 1998, has been working with the WEC as its official travel agency since 2012 and has become widely recognized on an international basis as the motorsport travel specialists, offering a wide range of services to manufacturers, teams, sponsors, media and individuals.    

But what do they do apart from flights and hotels?  More than you imagine!

With a team of seven people, M & C Travel Events cover around 1200 flights worldwide, 2700 hotel rooms, 800 rental cars, 690 transfers and approximately 31000 meals produced in team catering.

Furthermore, at the overseas races where the teams do not have their own catering units, the ladies and gents in blue have made race teams in the garages happy by delivering around 700 chocolate

bars and apples, together with 1500 bananas, during a race week. In Shanghai alone, around 8000 bottles of water are delivered to the pit garages…an army indeed marches on its stomach.
