ezTravel’s low fare content is marketed through regular campaigns such as weekend fare promotions and a lowest price guarantee.

“To continue enhancing the service we deliver to customers – from search to purchase – we need a technology partner that combines the best fare options with a level of search customisation an delivery speed that matches today’s more sophisticated shopper preferences,” continued Mr. You. “A key focus for us today is helping our OTA customers review their business operations – in its entirety – to ensure they’re equipped with the best technologies to enhance the customer experience and drive down costs at all points of the travel selling cycle,” said Roshan Mendis, senior vice president for Sabre Travel Network Asia Pacific. “For example, time saved on better automating the ticketing process alone can translate into thousands of dollars every year for large agencies like ezTravel.” Sabre Corporation is the leading technology provider to the global travel industry, serving customers operating in 160 countries. Sabre processes over $120 billion in travel spend every year and its technology books over 2,000 trips every minute of every day.
