Airport Express

Unique Business Needs

 

Millions of travellers pass through the world’s major airports every year.  Up to 80% of passengers have no onward travel plans, and yet all will have taken time and effort to book their inbound flight.  What people look for when they arrive in a new city is a fast, affordable transit service to take them from the airport to the nearby metropolitan area, capable of storing their luggage and providing comfortable seating.  The solution to this unique set of requirements – Airport Express train services!

 

The challenge for Airport Express rail operators is to make travellers aware of your service before they board the plane.  Providing a system whereby travel sellers and bookers can buy an integrated air/rail ticket is key to capturing business at the critical point of sale.  This is where Amadeus, your chosen IT partner, can help.


Amadeus Total Rail

 

Amadeus Total Rail is our innovative customer-centric rail strategy.  We see the rail business as having two fundamental drivers, both necessary for success:

 

  • State-of-the-art technology to facilitate excellent passenger operations.
  • Multiple sales channels to showcase and sell your train services.

 

Amadeus Total Rail divides our solutions package into these key business areas.  We invite you to learn more about each of products and services.
