DUBAI – Dubai-based Emirates has signed a 10-year global airline distribution agreement with travel distribution provider Sabre Travel Network.
The agreement was signed by HH Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al-Maktoum, chairman and CEO, Emirates Airline and Group, and Sam Gilliland, CEO of Sabre Holdings.
Effective immediately, the agreement provides Sabre Connected travel agencies and corporations around the world with access to Emirates’ full content fares for the next 10 years through the Sabre global distribution system (GDS).
