Poll Results: Is the volcanic ash cloud disruption an opportunity for railways to capture new travellers?
A staggering 100% of voters believed that the volcanic ash crisis is an opportunity for railways to capture new business.
Hundreds of thousands of stranded travelers looked for alternative ways to reach their destination. Ferry services were sold out and car rental companies had to turn away potential customers. However, railway companies must have been one of the biggest winners coming out of the volcanic ash crisis.

Amadeus at The Future of European Rail
Tomorrow, Amadeus Rail will be attending ‘The Future of European Rail’, one of the most established and important events within the industry. It will take place in Madrid from the 16th and 17th of March with many key industry players attending.
Diane Bouzebiba, Head of the Amadeus Rail Business Unit, will be speaking on maximizing operational efficiency and sales for a deregulated market. She will cover fundamental issues such as estimating the potential of improved distribution on passenger numbers and modal share and whether operator’s sales channels are optimized to take advantage of deregulation.

The Amadeus Rail Forum Returns for 2010
Amadeus Rail can reveal that this year’s event will be taking place from the 15-17th of November. It is sure to be as successful as our previous Rail Forums held in 2007 and 2008, bringing together large audiences of rail experts and provoking dynamic discussions on the most current issues on rail passenger sales and operations.
The previous rail forums have covered such topics as European de-regulation which is even more prominent now since it was enforced at the beginning of this year and also interesting discussions on ‘best practice sharing,’ e-ticketing, selling rail, customer experience and intermodal travel.
The Amadeus Rail Forum allows delegates to actively participate in workshops that are run by the industry and put forward their own views. As well as an informative and diverse agenda, the social programme will be the perfect opportunity for you to relax and network with key people from the rail industry.
Participation is by invitation only, due to limited numbers and priority to customers, however, we are always on the lookout for thought provoking presentations and topics.
Amadeus will share with the delegates their product and solution suite for the railways and travel sellers, enabling success in the travel and tourism indusrty.
Topics are now open for discussion on our LinkedIn group.
The venue is yet to be confirmed so watch this space.
