Meet Sam :]

Sam (Smart Assistant for Mobile) is Stage and Screen's pocket travel assistant that helps business travellers with everything from itinerary management, bookings, service and support.

We know you can’t always manage, book or view your business travel services and plans from your desk. That is why we believe it is crucial to develop technology that enhances your traveller experience on-the-go.

Our Smart Assistant for Mobile or Sam for short is an industry-first. This mobile app is a travel assistant in the pocket, powered by artificial intelligence. Sam has proved a game-changer for clients and many have said it has “saved” them during a trip. It is simple and intuitive to use thanks to its chatbot-based interface making it just like using Facebook Messenger or WhatsApp.

Whether you are on the move or away on a business trip, you can be confident that Sam can handle everything from booking your flights, hotels or ground transport to updating you on the weather at your destination so you know what to pack.

Sam also advises you on your exact departure gate, flight time changes or where to collect your bags plus suggests restaurants to visit, alerts you about traffic delays and connects you to a live text or phone chat with a consultant if you need or want it.

Created to be friendly and personal, it has been based on real-life travel consultants and was designed to solve common problems identified by extensive research among travellers and clients just like you.

Thanks to Sam, all traveller information is always at your fingertips putting you in control 24/7. This makes for a more relaxed journey, positively impacting your well-being and allowing you to focus on your destination and the business in hand.
