AMEX, SABRE PARTNER ON MOBILE INTEGRATION

Sabre and American Express are providing a more personal travel experience for American Express Global Business Travel clients through TripCase, Sabre’s mobile travel app. Through this agreement, American Express clients can receive real-time flight updates and live, automatic syncing of itinerary information from American Express to the TripCase app. Because TripCase knows where the traveller is in the trip, American Express corporate card members also receive relevant in-app messages about card benefits and deals, such as airport lounge access and in-flight Wi-Fi. “Travellers today want – and expect – personalized service and offers while on the road,”said John Samuel, senior vice-president, Sabre Traveler Solutions. “This integration delivers that to Amex customers with better, faster and more relevant information.”Whether an American Express business traveller books business trips online or on the phone, the reservation is automatically updated and reflected accurately within the TripCase app and web site. In addition, the integration makes it simple for business travellers to react to any last-minute changes.
