SABRE PRESENTS A GLOBAL VISION FOR THE ASIA PACIFIC TRAVEL COMMUNITY AS ABACUS REBRANDS

SINGAPORE, November 2, 2015 – Sabre Corporation (NASDAQ: SABR), the leading technology provider to the global travel industry has announced a rebrand of all its acquired Abacus assets in Asia Pacific, effective today. Over 100 wholly owned and affiliated offices across the region will now operate as Sabre, with travel agency and supplier customers engaging with their local teams at Sabre Travel Network Asia Pacific and via an expanded corporate domain at www.sabre.com/apac. The rebrand reflects Sabre’s aim of connecting its entire travel community so that Asia Pacific agents can shop the world’s largest marketplace for travel, while suppliers gain access to a global distribution channel of over 425,000 on and offline wholesale, corporate and leisure travel outlets. “The rebrand recognizes the global potential of Asia Pacific’s evolving travel businesses, especially those focused on the opportunities online,” said Roshan Mendis, senior vice president of Sabre Travel Network Asia Pacific. “We want every travel agent and regional supplier to readily access our global and local software, data, mobile and distribution services, to enjoy the benefit of one unified and market-aligned global Sabre brand.” From today, www.abacus.com.sg visitors will transfer to www.sabre.com/apac to discover more about the global travel technology leader and its presence, support and investment in the Asia Pacific region. “For our customers and prospects, the message is that Sabre is the partner of choice for faster shared innovation and accelerated growth. We will help all our Asia Pacific customers to compete in new markets and win,” added Mendis.

EMIRATES GDS WASTAGE RECOVERY

Dear Trade Partner, Over the years, Emirates has been actively educating the trade to help Airlines reduce their continuously increasing GDS costs.

We would like to inform you that effective 01st October 2014, Emirates Airline will be raising ADMs for the recovery of such costs incurred due to such unproductive segments from your respective agency. The ADMs will be posted and settled through BSP billing. We urge you to educate your team members to adopt the policy of checking and removing such unproductive segments on a regular basis to avoid debits in this regard. Please feel free to contact Emirates Sales Team for any briefing and guidelines that may be needed.

Abacus Study Reveals Vast Untapped Opportunities for Mobile

Despite soaring adoption rates of smartphones and tablets across Asia Pacific, mobile applications remain a largely untapped opportunity within the travel industry here, according to a regional study released by Abacus International today. This is one of the primary findings of the ‘2013 Abacus Corporate Travel Practices Survey’ which collated the views of the most influential corporate travel companies and corporate travel agencies in Asia Pacific to uncover vital trends that are expected to impact their businesses over the next two to three years. Revealing a clear disconnect between the perceived importance and actual provision of smartphone and tablet applications in the industry, 83 per cent of respondents felt mobile technology would have a moderate to significant impact on their business, but only a third (33%) of those surveyed had implemented any mobile web or native applications as yet. Additionally, of those available only four in ten enable flight and hotel bookings via mobile and only one in ten provide the ability to make changes to existing arrangements. Just one in seven had created a specific app for tablet users. Corporate travel policy was another area where the prevailing trend was not reflected in the practice of agents. Despite the positive economic outlook acknowledged by all, 97 per cent had received instructions from clients to further tighten their policy terms. The pressure has led to increased demand for alternative flight and accommodation options, right into the long tail. More budget travel has clearly resulted. 73 per cent of respondents noted higher low-cost carrier (LCC) bookings for corporate travellers, mostly to comply with policies governing the choice of lowest fare. Robert Bailey, CEO of Abacus International notes, however, that the LCCs are also reaching out to the corporate sector much more. “While the low-cost market in Asia has yet to fully embrace corporate travel distribution, some budget carriers are now clearing a path to the corporate accounts, recognising the scale of the opportunity with trade partners, particularly on routes where low-cost competition is beginning to crowd out,” he said. Two patterns of corporate booking tool adoption were also seen to be emerging, which the study explores in more detail. Secondary expense management systems as a source of competitive differentiation were also identified, with over half looking to jump in on their popularity soon. “Despite the challenges, travel agencies are better placed to capitalise on the trends as they affect their businesses,” added Bailey. “The essential technology and content is already available and customised for clients in many different commercial settings.” The 2013 Abacus Corporate Travel Practices Survey was completed in April 2013 and is published today.
