Lao Airlines has inked a 10-year agreement with Sabre Corp to transform its offer-and order- based retailing.
The agreement deepens Sabre’s long-standing relationship with Lao Airlines which selected the SabreSonic Passenger Service System (PSS), accompanied by an extension of their distribution partnership.
Not only will the carrier continue to be part of the SabreMosaic Travel Marketplace, but it will also join Sabre’s cloud-based PSS suite, which helps airlines around the globe with everything from initial bookings to post-flight services.
“The decision to partner with Sabre goes way beyond a simple software upgrade,” said Viengxay Singkham, Managing Director, Lao Airlines.
“It is the practical engine behind the airline’s vision to connect Laos to the world.”
“This marks a pivotal step in Lao Airlines’ growth journey,” added Maneesh Jaikrishna, VP and regional general manager, airline IT solutions, Asia Pacific, Sabre.
“A unified PSS and distribution strategy provides the stability, scalability, and efficiency the airline needs as they grow into the future.”
The extended partnership provides enhanced connectivity with current and future interline and codeshare partners supporting the airline’s growth ambitions, as well as streamlined automation and workflows.
Lao Airlines was founded in 1989 and connects Laos and neighbours like China, Thailand, South Korea, Vietnam, and Cambodia.
