Travelport Names Trainline Preferred Rail Provider

Global distribution system operator Travelport announced a multi-year agreement with European online rail and coach ticket provider Trainline Partner Solutions, making the company Travelport’s preferred rail provider.

Trainline’s aggregated content from major rail operators in Europe will be integrated into Travelport Plus through Travelport’s Smartpoint desktop user interface and through APIs.

“Making our rail content accessible across the Travelport platform will further enhance our global reach and enable our unique offering to be searched and booked in conjunction with relevant air and hotel content, encouraging greener journeys,” said Trainline president Champa Magesh in a statement.
