LONDON, UK, 16 July 2014 – Sabre Corporation (NASDAQ: SABR), a global technology<\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n
provider to the travel and tourism industry, has signed a new multi-year agreement with SAS,<\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n
Scandinavia’s leading airline, to make its fares, inventory and premium seats available in the<\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n
Sabre global distribution system.<\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n
The new agreement means travel agencies globally can continue to shop and book all of the <\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n
airline’s fares as well as new ancillary services such as SAS’ premium seats in the Sabre travel <\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n
marketplace.<\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n
Harald Eisenaecher, Senior Vice President, Sabre Travel Network, Europe, Middle East and <\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n
Africa, said that SAS is an important customer, particularly in Europe, where Sabre is investing <\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n
to grow and is seeing strong interest in its technology. <\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n
“As part of our growth plans in Europe, we are continually adding new content into our <\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n
marketplace to support the growth of agencies in the region, while also helping airlines like SAS <\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n
explore new revenue opportunities, and differentiate how they market and sell their products. <\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n
The sale of ancillaries, such as pre-reserved seats, is a valuable source of revenue for SAS and <\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n
also provides travellers with more choices for their flight experience.”<\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n
Sabre’s travel marketplace plays an important role in facilitating the marketing and sale of <\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n
airfares, ancillary services, hotel rooms, rental cars, rail tickets and other types of travel, to more <\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n
than 400,000 travel agents and thousands of corporations who use it to shop, book and manage <\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n
travel. It is one of the world’s largest marketplaces, processing over $100 billion in estimated <\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n
travel spend. <\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n
SAS joins a growing list of airlines, including Air France-KLM, British Airways, Qantas, Virgin <\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n
Australia, Etihad, Finnair, Air New Zealand, Alitalia, Brussels Airlines, Aegean, Aeromexico, <\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n
easyJet, Lufthansa, United and US Airways, that have chosen to offer ancillary services and <\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n
