The addition of EVA Air advances Sabre’s multi-source content strategy by expanding booking options for travel agencies

SOUTHLAKE, TEXAS & SINGAPORE & TAIPEI CITY, TAIWAN – Nov. 21, 2024 – Sabre Corporation (NASDAQ: SABR), a leading software and technology provider that powers the global travel industry, today announced New Distribution Capability (NDC) connectivity from Star Alliance member and five-star SKYTRAX airline, EVA Air, through Sabre’s global multi-source content platform.

With this new connection, EVA Air’s NDC content will be seamlessly integrated into Sabre’s global distribution system (GDS), allowing travel agencies and corporate buyers to compare flight options with greater efficiency and transparency. This move aligns with EVA Air’s commitment to improving the customer experience by offering more personalized and flexible fare choices. Additional information will be released by the airline in the coming months.

“Implementing our NDC connection to Sabre’s global travel marketplace is an exciting milestone for EVA Air as we continue to expand our distribution strategy,” said EVA Air Vice President, Digital and Information Planning, Eric Chiu. “By participating in Sabre’s extensive global marketplace and activating NDC capabilities, we are able to deliver an even higher level of service to travellers.”

NDC is designed to enhance airline retailing by enabling carriers to distribute more diverse and real-time travel options through third parties. By integrating and normalizing NDC offers, Sabre gives travel agencies and corporate buyers an efficient way to shop, book and service airlines’ NDC offers alongside traditional content and low-cost carrier options by using Sabre’s APIs and travel agency booking platforms, Sabre Red 360 and Sabre Red Launchpad™. Travel sellers will have more options to customize the travel experience for their clients.

“We’re delighted that EVA Air has chosen to join the growing number of airlines globally who are activating NDC connections through Sabre,” said Kathy Morgan, Senior Vice President of Product Management, Distribution Experience, Sabre Travel Solutions. “It is another proof point of our commitment to providing airlines with the solutions they need to retail fares and offers in a way that makes sense for their business growth, while providing travel agencies with a seamless way to shop, book, and manage all types of airline content.”
