SINGAPORE and SYDNEY, Dec. 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Sabre Corporation (NASDAQ: SABR), a leading software and technology provider that powers the global travel industry, has extended its long-term distribution agreement with Qantas, Australia's largest airline. This multi-year agreement reflects a continued commitment between Sabre and Qantas to deliver the widest breadth of content to travel agencies worldwide with the most flexible options, including comprehensive access to Qantas' New Distribution Capability (NDC) content.

"At Qantas, we're focused on enhancing our retailing capabilities to meet the dynamic needs of both travelers and travel agencies," said Kathryn Robertson, Qantas Executive Manager, Global Sales & Distribution.
