MIAMI — Brightline’s new partnership with AccesRail means travel advisors can now access and book the Florida rail line’s products via the GDS.

 Using booking code 9B travel partners can now easily book rail segments between South Florida and Orlando in a similar fashion to flights on all GDS systems including Amadeus, Sabre and Travelport.  

The Brightline Orlando Station is located directly within Orlando International Airport (MCO), and shuttles to Miami International and Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International airports can now be booked for a seamless connection from respective downtown stations.  

“Brightline connects travellers from around the world to two of the most popular tourism regions in the United States that attract millions of visitors from around the world each year,” said Julie Sharenow, VP Sales, Brightline. “Our partnership with AccesRail enables travel partners from across the globe to easily reserve seats with effortless efficiency on the standard network by simply using code 9B.”

Brightline expanded service to Orlando in September 2023. The intercity rail service with South Florida downtown stations in West Palm Beach, Boca Raton, Fort Lauderdale, Aventura and Miami makes it easy to travel between MCO and these city centers and their many attractions.

 Cruise ports near Brightline stations include Port Miami, Port Everglades and Port of Palm Beach. Cruisers sailing from Port Canaveral can connect to transportation at MCO.

AccesRail is a distribution company enabling partner railways to distribute their products (point to point or passes) on a shared cost basis via the GDS primary screen using the same booking and ticketing method as airlines. All schedule and fare loading is done through OAG and ATPCO, and fund collection and reconciliation are done through IATA BSP.
