Sabre is launching a new app to make it easier for agents to book seats on French operator SNCF’s trains.
The Sabre Rail SNCF app, which is available from today (April 1) from the Sabre Red App Centre, displays all the train operator’s products, fares and seat availability on a single screen.
Agents can also search by product and passenger types. When a booking is completed, all of the traveller’s data is then automatically sent through Sabre’s system.
Elisabeth Martins, Sabre Travel Network’s UK and Ireland country director, said: “The launch of Sabre Rail SNCF is an important enhancement to our rail offering.
“It is a significant development for the agency community as it will make them operationally more productive while being able to optimise customer service levels at the same time.
“We worked very closely with travel agencies, and a design expert at a professional usability lab in Paris to develop the Sabre Rail SNCF app.”
