Sabre subsidiary Radixx has entered the rail industry through a partnership with Brightline to support Florida’s rail network.
Brightline is the US’s only private high-speed passenger rail system developed to link city pairs and congested corridors that are too long to drive or too close to fly.

With work to expand the line to Orlando in progress, Brightline is currently operating in Florida between Miami, West Palm Beach and Fort Lauderdale.
In a statement, Radixx said: “The entrance into the rail market comes at a time when there is significant opportunity in domestic travel options, as Americans look for alternatives to flying and driving and are seeking more sustainable travel options.”
Under the partnership, Brightline will go live on Radixx Res later this year in a bid to enhance the passenger experience and grow revenue.
Radixx Res is a cloud-hosted passenger service system (PSS) that provides unrestricted ancillary upsells.
