Sabre Travel Network celebrates growth

Celebrating the one-year anniversary of Sabre’s Asia Pacific business expansion, Sabre Travel Network staff around the region joined the party.

Sabre Travel Network Asia Pacific senior vice president Roshan Mendis said, “We’ve come a long way in just one year, connecting local teams, knowledge and customers with Sabre’s global network of travel content and technology. Looking forward, the agenda is all about how we can do more for both travel retailers and suppliers in a landscape framed by growing traveller demands for relevancy, speed, choice and personalisation.”

Last week Sabre shared a sneak peek into a major new release of its travel agency booking platform, Sabre Red Workspace, which will evolve the way travel is shopped and sold.

Sabre has been working on bringing new technologies to market along with a more strategic, data-driven approach to the way they consult with customers, spotting opportunities to evolve their businesses from the core.

Sabre Travel Network South Pacific, regional director Richard Morgan added that in the past year “we have been able to start truly leveraging our leading global capabilities. The significant expansion of Sabre’s presence in the Asia Pacific region has fundamentally strengthened the core of our business in Australia and New Zealand.”

In the last 12 months Sabre Travel Network has introduced sub-region teams responsible for driving localised business operations in APAC, spanning Southeast Asia, South Asia, South Pacific and North Asia. New Global Customer Support Centres have also opened in Singapore and India to support the growing base of travel agencies expanding to run multi-market operations in the region.
