ATLANTA, June 22 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- TRX, Inc. (www.trx.com) (Other OTC: TRXI), a world-leading provider of travel technology, process automation, consulting and data services, today announced a new agreement with Area Travel Agency, a leading travel agency in Finland and a subsidiary of Finnish Air PLC, to provide mid-office solutions via CORREX™.
CORREX is a reservation processing platform enabling efficient, automated quality control, file finishing, and ticketing of travel reservations. By eliminating manual processes, CORREX helps increase agent productivity, reduce front and back-office errors, and reduce costs. The platform allows agents to consolidate pre-travel and reservation reporting across multiple Global Distribution Systems (GDSs), third-party and corporation-specific databases, and other sources of traveler-specific information.
"Area chose TRX as our mid-office partner due to their reputation and global experience," said Samuli Sakari, Operations Manager, Area. "To ensure the continued delivery of the highest level of service to our customers, we needed a partner with a proven track record of delivering reliable, high quality service and the ability to meet the specific needs of our market and customers." Sakari added, "This partnership will skyrocket Area quality standards with new tailor-made, automated and enhanced email communication."
The new user-friendly eTicket layout will be ground breaking, enabling enhanced mobile solutions for business travelers. It solves the problem of eTickets ending up in junk mail folders.
"We are delighted to announce Area Travel Agency as a new client for our mid-office processing solution, CORREX. We think of ourselves as the category leader in this space and adding a Finnish travel partner of the quality of Area, just adds to that leadership position," said Shane Hammond, President and CEO, TRX.
