Plans detail how to handle the situation and offer delay repay to customers. Integration with thetrainline ensures staff can recommend real-time travel updates.

The result: Abellio saw a record customer satisfaction rating in 2017, with customers feeling informed and staff up to date thanks in part to the Contingency App.
