Release Details
Carey Limo content available in Sabre travel marketplace via a new Red App
The Red App will allow travel agents to book both Carey and Embarque ground transportation in more than 1,000 cities worldwide directly from the Sabre Red Workspace and receive a commission on each applicable booking. In addition, because the reservation will merge into the traveler's passenger naming record (PNR) through a new and enhanced itinerary segment created by Sabre, agents will have the flexibility to fully manage the reservation and visibility to track the expense, helping agents save time and increase revenue.
Carey's new Red App also provides real-time status updates, meaning if a passenger makes a change via Carey's call center, it will automatically appear in the agent's workflow and on the traveler's itinerary.
"Typically, when people talk about 'GDS content' they largely think of air, hotel and rental car content. That is changing, and it will continue to evolve dramatically in the coming years," said
"The launch of CESDirect in the Sabre Red Workspace, marks a major milestone for not just the Carey and Embarque brands, but the entire chauffeured transportation industry," said
CESDirect is currently in limited release for beta testing and will be available exclusively in the Sabre Red App Centre sometime during the third quarter of this year.
