Sabre launches TripCase for Blackberry devices, ties up with DFW

Published: 02 Sep 2009

Sabre has launched the BlackBerry version of its free smart mobile application, TripCase.

A Windows Mobile version of the application will be available sometime this fall. TripCase allows its users to organise information about their upcoming trips.

The smart phone software, developed by Sabre Travel Studios, allows passengers to track airline, hotel and car rental information while on the road, and receive updates automatically.

Tie up with DFW International Airport

Sabre Travel Studios has also tied up with DFW International Airport to offer useful information to the users of TripCase, a smart phone application available now on the iPhone and BlackBerry platforms.

With the partnership, DFW passengers will also get updates on gate and bag claim changes, as well as information on retail and restaurant offers and services offered within their terminal.

DFW will be the first airport in the nation to provide information and offers integrated within the TripCase application.

The airport is located halfway between the cities of Dallas and Fort Worth, Texas. DFW International Airport is the world’s third busiest, offering nearly 1,750 flights per day and serving 57 million passengers a year.
