Travelport announces mobile GDS application

Developed by Travel Technology & Solutions (TTS), the product is one of the first products to be made available globally as a result of the Travelport Developer Network which was launched last November. The product was successfully piloted in Portugal, Spain and Brazil when it was downloaded by more than 3,000 agents.

Commenting on the launch, Jason Nash, Vice President Product Innovation at Travelport said: “We are delighted to be able to bring this product to the industry through our Developer Network. By enabling talented 3rd parties to build products using Travelport technology we are delivering on our strategy to launch new, innovative solutions for our customers worldwide.”

“Being able to manage our travel bookings on the move is hugely advantageous in today’s mobile world,” said Marcio Ferreira, CEO at Aviateam, one of the early adopters of Travelport Mobile Agent. “We are delighted to see Travelport offering innovative mobile solutions that enable us to enhance the service we offer to our customers and improve our processes.”

This launch of Travelport Mobile Agent comes shortly after the successful global launch of Travelport ViewTrip™ Mobile, Travelport’s mobile traveller itinerary application.
