TheTrainline, UK’s rail retailer, has signed a new partnership with Traveldoo, a European provider of online travel management solutions for businesses, TMCs and distributors. The deal allows Traveldoo to integrate TheTrainline content into its online business travel booking platform via Trainline Connect, the rail retailer’s API. This then enables its corporate customers and agents to access a further enhanced and seamless online rail booking service.
According to Trainline, the technology of Trainline Connect will allow Traveldoo to expand its capability to simplify travel programme management and reduce its clients’ business travel expenditure.
Adrian Watts, Sales and Distribution Director for TheTrainline, comments: “The partnership with Traveldoo further consolidates our position in the online travel management market and proves once again that we are the supplier of choice to provide leading business travel management solutions. Traveldoo has a strong reputation for providing cost-effective solutions to its clients and Trainline Connect will enhance its offering by creating an efficient and streamlined rail booking tool.”
Olivier Mindren, Vice President, Marketing of Traveldoo Technologies comments: “By connecting TheTrainline to our corporate travel management platform we strengthen our commitment to provide richer content to our growing customer base in the UK, helping them further optimise their travel spend with best-in-class rail connectivity.”
The connection to TheTrainline will be available in September 2007 to large organisations through Traveldoo Enterprise and to small and mid-sized companies through online travel agencies using Traveldoo Portal.
