Travel management platform TripActions has partnered with
Trainline for Business in a deal it says demonstrates its commitment to the
European market.
The partnership expands its rail travel content and will
“enable enterprises and their travellers to get back to business across the UK
and EU”.
It had previously provided rail content through Evolvi and
GDSs.
Trainline’s global API provides access to 160 rail
operators, while booking functionality includes all ticket types, mix-and-match
fares, multi-traveller bookings, the use of discount cards, e-ticketing and
automated trip updates.
Reporting for travel managers within the TripActions
dashboard includes average ticket cost, traveller location and the carbon
impact of booked rail travel.
TripActions says it will continue to add rail inventory in
Europe, Asia and North America.
Currently working with nearly 4,000 enterprises globally,
the company recently raised
US$125 million in financing and appointed Christopher Vik as senior vice
president of sales for EMEA.
