Europcar has upgraded its connectivity in the Sabre GDS to the highest level. This means that Sabre Connected agents worldwide will now have real-time access to Europcar`s rates and availability information, in a simple, one-step way.
AnnMari Dalon, international reservation gds and data director at Europcar International said: Connecting at Sabre`s highest level will further benefit travel agents, by giving them quick and easy access to the information they need. It will also enable us to automate the process by which we input data, as the information we enter in our own reservation system will automatically appear in the Sabre GDS. This means that we will be making huge savings in terms of costs and resources.
Stuart Nassos, Sabre Travel Network`s vice-president of strategic marketing and sales said: Sabre Travel Network is committed to offering car companies increased efficiencies and greater revenue opportunities, while at the same time providing a better, reliable and more cost effective service to their customers. Europcar`s upgraded connectivity will streamline the car rental booking and selling process, allowing agents to spend more time doing what they do best – advising their customers.
Sabre`s partnership with Europcar has grown significantly over the past year with joint promotions and incentives being launched in several markets to increase car bookings with Europcar through the Sabre GDS. In recognition of the exceptional partnership development and continued support, Europcar has been awarded the Sabre Travel Network Outstanding Partnership Award 2004.
