Sabre Travel Network has launched the ability for Sabre Connected travel agents to sell their passengers United Airlines’ popular Economy Plus through the Sabre Connected travel agency point of sale tools, MySabre and Turbo Sabre. This capability provides multiple opportunities for agents to offer Economy Plus to their travelers throughout the transaction flow.

United is the most recent airline to take advantage of Sabre’s pay-for-seats capability, which allows passengers and travel agents to purchase special seating preferences through the Sabre global distribution system (GDS).

“This launch with United is another testament to the tremendous value of the GDS and Sabre’s ability to adapt our merchandising capabilities to the unique needs of each of our airline customers,” said Greg Webb, chief marketing officer for Sabre.
