Sabre Corporation, founded in 2006 and headquartered in Southlake, Texas, is a global provider of advanced software and technology solutions specifically designed for the travel industry. The company structures its operations into two primary divisions: Travel Solutions and Hospitality Solutions. The Travel Solutions division serves as a crucial business-to-business travel marketplace. It connects a wide array of travel providers, including airlines, hotels, vehicle rental agencies, rail carriers, cruise lines, and tour operators, with a diverse network of travel buyers such as online and traditional travel agencies, travel management firms, and corporate travel departments. This segment supplies extensive travel content, encompassing inventory, pricing information, and real-time availability. Additionally, Travel Solutions furnishes a comprehensive suite of software technology products and services to airlines and other travel suppliers. These offerings, delivered through software-as-a-service (SaaS) and hosted models, span essential reservation systems, commercial and operational management tools, agency support platforms, and sophisticated data intelligence solutions. Conversely, the Hospitality Solutions division focuses on delivering specialized software and services directly to hoteliers, predominantly utilizing SaaS and hosted deployment infrastructures.
