Sabre Holdings (NYSE:TSG) today announced a new agreement with
Amadeus IT Group SA to provide their respective travel agents with
uninterrupted access to airline inventory. Specifically, the
agreement enables Sabre Travel Network to provide its travel agents
with the ability to complete bookings on an airline that might not
participate in the Sabre global distribution system (GDS). Sabre
will offer the same back-up for Amadeus. The agreement is designed
to benefit the tens of thousands of Sabre GDS subscribers as well
as the traveling public by ensuring their travel agents have
content access to offer a broad choice of airlines. Providing Sabre
connected agents with this capability will help to ensure they have
continued broad and seamless access to airline inventory and is
expected to help avoid service disruptions. The ultimate
beneficiaries of this agreement are travelers, whether leisure or
business, who can now be assured that their travel agent will
continue to be able to service the full range of their travel
needs. About Sabre Holdings Sabre Holdings connects people with the
