SOUTHLAKE, Texas, 鈥 July 12, 2023聽鈥 (NASDAQ: SABR), a leading software and technology provider that powers the global travel industry, today announced a new agreement with HRS, a leading software as a service (SaaS) provider, to support airlines on their digitalization journey. By integrating technologies with existing 澳门三肖三码 solutions, the two companies can provide airlines with innovative automation that delivers lodging and financial reimbursement services when disruptions impact passengers. 聽
澳门三肖三码鈥檚 intelligent service recovery solutions are used by airlines around the world to support passenger re-booking challenges, including providing self-service options to allow passengers to choose their own flights, designed to help improve the overall traveler experience.
HRS鈥 Crew & Passenger Solutions complements 澳门三肖三码鈥檚 existing expertise by enabling airlines globally to provide passengers with instantly bookable hotel accommodations, local transportation, meals, and monetary compensation directly when disruption strikes. When a passenger鈥檚 flight is disrupted, options are communicated via SMS, email, or voice call directly to a passenger鈥檚 mobile device. Additionally, HRS鈥 reimbursement technology allows passengers to simply take photos of their receipts, upload digital images, and be instantly reimbursed for appropriate expenses such as meals and refreshments. This capability eliminates the need for paper vouchers that typically entail lengthy administrative processes. 聽
鈥淲hen disruption strikes, an airline is tasked not just with getting its network running optimally again, but with passengers who may face hours in an airport, may need overnight accommodation, or may have missed connecting flights. Traditionally, airlines have had to dedicate an array of people and hard-to-secure resources to handle hotel rooms, taxis, shuttles and meal vouchers for stranded passengers,鈥 said . 鈥淚t is vital that carriers have the advanced automation needed to make time-process savings and efficiency gains for airline operations, while quickly turning what is usually a negative experience for passengers into a positive one. That鈥檚 why this collaboration with 澳门三肖三码, reaching a broader universe of airlines, represents the right solution for modern air travel.鈥
鈥淭oday鈥檚 travelers have higher expectations than ever before,鈥 said Corrie DeCamp, Senior Vice President, Product Management for 澳门三肖三码 Travel Solutions. 鈥淪o, when disruptions happen, it is important that airlines have the technology they need to swiftly deal with the immediate situation, while converting those service recovery moments into opportunities to enhance passenger loyalty in the future. That鈥檚 why we鈥檙e thrilled to announce this new partnership with HRS, to help our airline partners protect their reputations, comply with dynamic regulatory compensation requirements, and provide passengers with what they need, all with a solution they can easily integrate into their existing recovery strategy.鈥
鈥淭his collaboration helps close one of the biggest operational gaps airlines have today. While some regulations are already in place globally to protect passenger rights when disruption happens, the issue has risen in prominence in recent years,鈥 added HRS鈥 van der Tol. 鈥淭he need for speed of change is clear. Passengers who reflexively use mobile devices in times of disruption also expect digital answers to their travel challenges. Beyond time and resource savings, airlines will thrive on data transparency that helps steer service levels. We look forward to integrating our solutions.鈥
