Sabre Corporation is developing a technology solution that will integrate multiple sources of content including the Sabre global distribution system (GDS) and non-GDS sources such as aggregators, re-distributors, agency-sourced hotel content and other sources as identified.
Planned for a 2018 launch, the Sabre Content Services for Lodging will also support a multi-representation display option of the content creating a whole new way to retail travel content.
Sabre said the growing buyer demand for more hotel content across properties, products, amenities and rates is behind the development of the lodging content.
The new technology solution will launch in 2018
Buyers and consumers of GDS content will have access to more options, and a more consistent shopping experience to include the way content is displayed at the room and rate level.
“The goal is to provide a flexible solution that meets the needs of customers,” said Sabre.
The solution will include the capabilities of Sabre APIs and will be incorporated across all Sabre points-of-sale: Sabre Red Workspace, GetThere and TripCase. This will extend tools for buyers and suppliers of lodging content to better manage chain, property, and rate-level preferred content.
