Emirates, Sabre Sign Global Distribution Agreement

Dubai-based Emirates Airline has signed a 10-year global airline distribution agreement with Sabre Travel Network.

Effective immediately, this agreement provides Sabre-connected travel agencies and corporations around the world with easy and efficient access to Emirates’s full content fares for the next 10 years through the Sabre global distribution system.

Keith Longstaff, divisional senior vice president of commercial operations worldwide at Emirates, said: “In the past months, we have been working to align our distribution arrangements to support Emirates’s planned growth in terms of fleet and route expansion, particularly with the arrival of more A380 aircraft.

“We are confident that Sabre is an ideal partner to help us accelerate our global growth and support our fleet expansion plans, and look forward to working with them to achieve this using our combined strengths.”
