Amadeus has today announced the UK launch of a new rail booking tool – Rail Display.
With full content partner Voyages-sncf, agents will be able to access all SNCF fares, origins and destinations throughout Europe, including services from Eurostar, TGV, Thalys and TGV Lyria.
Amadeus said the tool will be integrated into travel agencies’ tools and processes (profiles, passenger name record, mid and back office feeds) and allows agents to combine air, hotel and rail content in a single PNR.
Using Rail Display, full content for launch partner Voyages-sncf can be accessed by all of the rail firm’s accredited travel agents in the UK and Ireland.
Amadeus’ managing director Diane Bouzebiba, said: “Travelling on high speed rail in Europe is a superb experience and the time is now for travel sellers to embrace growing consumer demand and the extra earning potential of international rail travel.”
Voyages-sncf head of sales for UK and Ireland Paul Lacey, said: “Access and ‘bookability’ are important cornerstones for continuing to grow sales of European rail.
“We are delighted that our partnership with Amadeus further extends the choice that travel agents have to offer a wide range of continental fares and products to their customers.”
