Travelport launches GDS app for mobile devices

TRAVELPORT has released Travelport Mobile Agent, a mobile app that enables Travelport-connected travel consultants to access the Galileo interface directly on their mobile devices (TTG Asia e-Daily, May 14, 2012).

Currently downloadable via Apple’s App Store, Travelport Mobile Agent is one of the first products to be released globally as a result of the Travelport Developer Network launched last November. The app has already been piloted across Portugal, Spain and Brazil, where it was downloaded more than 3,000 times.

Jason Nash, vice president Product Innovation at Travelport, said: “By enabling talented third parties to build products using Travelport technology, we are delivering on our strategy to launch new, innovative solutions for our customers worldwide.”

Marcio Ferreira, CEO of Aviateam, a GSA based in Portugal, said: “Being able to manage our travel bookings on the move is hugely advantageous in today’s mobile world. Travelport’s innovative mobile solutions enable us to enhance the services we offer to our customers and improve our processes.”

The launch of Travelport Mobile Agent comes shortly after the global release of Travelport ViewTrip Mobile, Travelport’s mobile traveller itinerary application (TTG Asia e-Daily, June 27, 2012).
