In fact, one of the most<br />
common multi-modal travel<br />
options is booking your flight<br />
and your connecting airport to<br />
city rail ticket with it. Through<br />
integrated solutions such as<br />
Amadeus Airport Express,<br />
travel agencies can easily add<br />
an airport express train ticket<br />
to a traveller’s flight or hotel<br />
room at the moment of<br />
booking. If you’re anything like<br />
me, this definitely eases the<br />
stress of arriving to an<br />
unfamiliar city, not speaking<br />
the local language and trying<br />
to navigate the local airport<br />
ticket office to buy a train<br />
ticket. Instead, you can proceed<br />
through departures and hop on<br />
your train to the city centre<br />
stress free!<br />
There are huge opportunities<br />
for rail companies to innovate<br />
and provide more personalised<br />
travel services, bringing a<br />
‘door-to-door’ experience one<br />
step closer to reality. As we<br />
embark on the multi-modal<br />
journey, collaboration between<br />
key industry players is key to<br />
overcome the challenges and<br />
enable the traveller of<br />
tomorrow a seamless travel<br />
experience from their initial<br />
search right through to arrival<br />
at their destination.<br />
