Spotnana has integrated with Trainline Partner Solutions’ API to provide booking and servicing of European rail providers through its platform, the company announced.
Rail content now is available for travelers in the U.K. as well as from Germany’s Deutsche Bahn, Switzerland’s SBB, Italy’s Trenitalia and Spain’s Renfe. Content from the remaining Trainline partners will be available in the coming months as Spotnana finalizes accreditations, Spotnana VP of travel operations Bill Brindle said in a blog post.
Besides access to the content, the integration includes the ability to apply discounts from rail cards and loyalty programs, select seats on a map, view amenity details and purchase ancillaries, according to Spotnana. Travelers also can change and cancel rail trips and view split-ticket pricing on U.K. fares, in which individual legs of a trip are priced separately, which can provide lower total prices.
In addition, Spotnana enables travelers to run a rail search at the same time as a flight search so both options can be compared. This will “help travelers make sustainable travel choices,” Brindle said.
The European rail content joins U.S. rail content added when Spotnana integrated with Amtrak’s API last summer. This is the second major integration announced this week for Trainline, which on Wednesday announced a partnership with Sabre to make its content available in the Sabre travel marketplace.
