Westjet signs full-content agreement with Sabre Travel Network
WestJet has signed a multi-year, full-content agreement with Sabre Travel Network to enhance the airline’s global distribution capabilities. WestJet recently selected Sabre Airline Solutions’ SabreSonic Customer Sales and Service (CSS) as its reservations host-provider. This move further enhances the carrier’s ability to provide access to its full range of products and services through the efficiency of the Sabre global distribution system (GDS).



Through the Sabre GDS, Sabre Connected travel agents will have efficient access to all of the growing Canadian carrier’s published fares and inventory, including key capabilities such as last seat availability, codeshare and interlining sales, interactive inventory updates and eticketing. Access to these capabilities through the GDS will streamline the shopping and booking process, driving enhanced productivity for Sabre Connected agencies and corporate travelers using a corporate booking tool powered by Sabre.

WestJet will take advantage of Sabre’s marketing tools and technology to support the airlines continuing growth. The airline will also work with Sabre to facilitate efficient GDS access to any future frequent traveler program and merchandising efforts.
