Hahnair is pleased to announce an addendum to the agreement with high-speed rail operator Eurostar that was sealed at this year’s WTM in London. As of 1st December, the UK & European train services are available to travel agents in all markets for ticketing under the code 9F on Hahnair’s HR-169 ticket stock. To issue tickets, travel agents can use the standard ticketing process in all major GDSs.
“We are pleased to give our travel agency partners worldwide access to the excellent Eurostar services”, says Adriana C. Carrelli, Vice President Airline Business. “Through our interline agreement with Eurostar, the rail services of Eurostar and the flights of our more than 350 partner airlines can be combined on a single ticket. We have a wide network of partner airlines servicing Western Europe, and intermodal travel is extremely attractive to a wide leisure and business travel clientele. This mutually beneficial partnership exemplifies how Hahnair supports travel businesses by bridging gaps and driving growth.”
“Hahnair gives us a real air-rail connectivity which is key in growing our markets and growing our catchment”, adds Paul Brindley, B2B and Indirect Sales Director at Eurostar. “It also gives us a real international reach to customers beyond our core-markets in the UK, Belgium, France, Germany and the Netherlands. The relationship with Hahnair is always engaging and proactive, we are always finding solutions to grow and supply content that ensures that customers have the best experience.”
