It is interesting to read quite regularly about travelers opting for the train even though the price is higher than to fly.Here is one example and his rationale.I think (observe) that this paradigm is slowly accelerating. Given people are accustomed to airline and airport CX, no doubt they will have similar expectations/needs/demands from rail, and throughout their trip. Unfortunately I see little being done in this area. And I believe the best opportunity is for those who will jump on it. Sooner or later this will expand. And for the sake of clarity I am talking about #intermodal services, processes and solutions in a global and neutral #multimodal landscape. One or two examples: why does the traveler have to go through >1 retail experience throughout the travel? Or, how to synchronise travel info and schedules across the multiple travel services providers? To just name two from a long list. Some are obviously revenue generating opportunities, as we found on an end to end dynamic bag mgt use case involving airlines, airports, ground handlers and other service providers like insurance.Happy to discuss about this with you; you are welcome to PM me. Happy travels.
