Deal includes NDC content
Sabre has closed a multi-year renewal of its distribution agreement with Delta Air Lines.
The long-term agreement enables Sabre-connected
Travel agents connected to Sabre will now have access to both traditional EDIFACT and NDC Delta content.
Earlier this year, Delta announced details of its selling and servicing transformation, which included NDC.
The pair will work together on the integration of NDC content into Sabre’s travel marketplace to support the transformation.
“We are pleased to extend our full content agreement and value-based commercial model with Sabre,” said Jeff Lobl, managing director, distribution strategy and agency sales programmes of Delta Air Lines.
“We look forward to collaborating with Sabre to make Delta’s NDC technology solution available to all Sabre-connected travel agents to ensure that our customers receive the best possible travel experience tailored to their needs.”
Roshan Mendis, chief commercial officer of Sabre Travel Solutions, added: “Sabre is delighted to extend our long-standing partnership with Delta Air Lines and to support their NDC journey.
“This agreement underscores our commitment to building a comprehensive travel marketplace that equips travel agents with the tools and content they need to excel in today’s dynamic travel environment, including the ability to leverage the potential of NDC.”
