Sabre expands hotel choices by partnering with Expedia Affiliate Network, giving agents more options for travellers.

That is 63,000 more options, with the new integration with Expedia EAN added to the Sabre travel marketplace meaning travel agencies will now have access to the EAN rates and availability through the Sabre GDS.

Sabre Travel Network, vice president of travel product solutions, Shelly Terry said “Travel agencies will have more hotel options to offer their customers.”

“Additionally, more hotels in the Sabre travel marketplace will have the ability to merchandise their products, property attributes and personalize offerings to travelers. These are just a few ways Sabre provides hoteliers products to differentiate themselves and that is a powerful tool for travel buyers.”

Expedia EAN brand, vice president of sales, Christian Gerron added “Expedia Affiliate Network is excited to bring thousands of new properties across the globe to Sabre’s valued partner network. Expedia is continuing to grow hotel supply by thousands of hotels each month and the Sabre agent community will have the ability to deliver more solutions to their customers.”

Agents can easily shop and book properties through the Sabre Red Workspace. The additional properties are a wide range of property types, including full-service hotels and resorts, B and Bs and small inns, airport hotels, boutique hotels, budget hotels, and serviced apartments. While the new hotel content covers all regions, many of the properties are in Europe, the Middle East and Asia, typically where hotel property content is known for being highly fragmented.

The additional rates and availability from EAN expands Sabre’s robust hotel content of more than 750,000 properties, through the combination of its travel marketplace and network of hotel aggregator partners. Agents will now be able to offer more options to travellers, increasing more business and commission opportunities.
