With the Clipboard app, agents using classic view in Sabre Red Workspace can quickly and easily send air itinerary options to customers. The Red App transfers flight information from the Workspace including flight times, airlines, city codes and fares and creates an easy to read list of shopping options that can be sent to the traveller.
Elisabeth Martins, Sabre's commercial director in the UK and Ireland, said: "The Clipboard app will save agents valuable time when creating customer trip proposals. In these competitive times, it is vital that agencies harness the benefits of technology to stay ahead of the competition. This app will not only help agents deliver increased levels of customer service but will also make agencies more operationally efficient."
Clipboard allows agents to configure the trip proposal template to meet their individual requirements, such as including their agency logo and contact information. Agents can also include any service fees or markups with the trip proposal pricing. The app is smartphone friendly, and flight options can be sent in both plain text and HTML.
Currently, the Sabre Red App Centre offers more than 85 different apps, with additional apps under development by more than 50 Certified Red App Providers globally. Agents from more than 50 countries have used the Red App Centre, generating nearly 15,000 app downloads.
