History

[edit]

Lanes & Planes is a software company[1][2] based in Munich, Germany, specializing in business travel management solutions.[3][4][5] The company was founded in 2017 by Veit Blumenschein and Daniel Nolte. The founders, who met during their studies at RWTH Aachen University, previously collaborated on a travel-related venture called "from A to B," which was later acquired by Tank & Rast [de].

The company developed a platform[6][7][8] designed to streamline booking, expense reporting, and financial system integration for corporate clients. In 2020, Lanes & Planes secured a $10 million Series A funding round.[9][10] In a subsequent Series B round, the company raised $35 million,[11][12][13] led by Smash Capital with contributions from Battery Ventures,[14] Coparion, DN Capital, and All Iron.
