Sabre GetThere + Gem: TMC-Integrated Chauffeured Services

Travel management companies and corporate travel teams are increasingly adopting unified ground transportation within their booking and reporting infrastructure. Sabre GetThere is the platform of choice for Fortune 100 and Fortune 500 programs seeking a single command center for flights, hotels, rental cars, and ground transportation across every region and supplier.

Gem Worldwide integrates natively with Sabre GetThere, allowing travel managers to book ground transportation directly within the TMC workflow—no external portal, no dual-entry data, no missing receipt trails. Bookings flow through to your reservations stream instantly. Contacts us directly at reservations@gemlimo.com to configure your Sabre integration.

Why Integrate Ground Transportation with Sabre GetThere

Native booking workflow. Travel managers and bookers already use GetThere for flights and hotels. Adding Gem ground transportation within that interface eliminates task-switching, reduces booking errors, and accelerates fulfillment. A corporate traveler's complete trip itinerary—flight, hotel, ground—exists in a single record.

Automated e-receipt capture. Gem sends structured e-receipts that flow directly into Sabre GetThere's expense and reconciliation module. Travel managers stop chasing email attachments and spreadsheet uploads. The receipt data is already in the system.

Consolidated reporting and analytics. Ground transportation spend rolls up alongside flights and hotels in your corporate travel reporting. Budget allocation, vendor spend, volume trends, and cost-per-trip metrics all appear in your dashboard.

Global ground network under one supplier. Sabre GetThere users can book Gem in 200+ cities worldwide—direct service in NJ/NY/PA and affiliate operators in major metros globally. Single supplier, single contract, one integration, worldwide coverage.

Integration Architecture and Booking Flow

Gem's Sabre GetThere connector allows travel managers and TMC teams to:

1. Create itineraries that include flights, hotels, and ground transportation in a unified booking interface

2. Assign travelers to Gem ground service with vehicle type and special requirements (professional greeter, on-site dispatch, accessibility needs)

3. Access real-time availability for sedans, SUVs, Sprinters, mini coaches, and motor coaches across Gem's network

4. Receive automated confirmations with vehicle details, driver contact, pickup instructions, and tracking links

5. Pull e-receipts that auto-populate into expense systems for immediate reconciliation

For travel management companies, the integration positions Gem as a recommended ground transportation partner—reducing your vendor footprint and enabling your clients to consolidate under a single, globally available supplier.

Vehicle Fleet and Transportation Options

Sabre GetThere integrates with Gem's full vehicle catalog:

• Executive Sedan (Volvo S90, Lincoln Aviator Sedan)—ideal for solo executives and small teams

• Executive SUV (Lincoln Aviator, Lincoln Navigator, Cadillac Escalade)—perfect for teams of 5-7 with luggage

• Mercedes Executive Sprinter Van—limousine-style interior for 8 passengers plus luggage; frequently used for corporate group travel and small events

• Mini Coach (27, 39, 40 passenger)—for group transportation, corporate events, board retreats

• Motor Coach (56 passenger)—for large-scale corporate events and all-hands gatherings

Travel managers can specify vehicle class, time window, and service level at booking. Special requests—professional greeter, on-site dispatch coordination, accessibility requirements—are included in the Sabre GetThere booking note fields and automatically routed to Gem dispatch.

On-Site Dispatch for Multi-Vehicle Events and Roadshows

For corporate roadshows, multi-city events, and board-level travel with multiple vehicles, Gem deploys an on-site dispatcher—a dedicated coordinator who:

• Manages vehicle staging, timing, and real-time changes

• Coordinates directly with your travel coordinator and event team

• Handles traffic delays, attendee changes, and dynamic route adjustments

• Ensures white-glove execution without reliance on phone-based coordination

This is logged in Sabre GetThere's event planning module and communicated to our dispatch team during the booking confirmation process.

Electronic Receipts and Expense Automation

Every Gem ground transportation trip generates a structured e-receipt that includes:

• Trip date, time, and duration

• Pickup and destination addresses

• Vehicle type and driver name

• Mileage, rate type (flat-rate or hourly), and total cost

• GEM invoice number and booking reference

The e-receipt is transmitted to Sabre GetThere's reconciliation module within 24 hours of trip completion. Travel managers can review, validate, and reconcile Gem charges alongside flight and hotel expenses in a unified dashboard—no separate ground transportation receipt tracking.

24/7 Global Support for Travel Managers

Gem's 24/7 dispatch operates worldwide to support last-minute Sabre GetThere bookings, flight delays, and mid-trip changes. Travel managers can:

• Call (877) 436-5466 for direct support

• Email reservations@gemlimo.com with booking issues or escalations

• Access real-time vehicle tracking via Sabre GetThere's mobile integration

• Modify reservations on the fly without losing receipt data or audit trails

For international trips, Gem's affiliate operator network ensures consistent service and support across time zones and regions.
