MySabre - The Agent booking portal

MySabre, based on patented Sabre technology and fortified with Yahoo!®, is a Web-based agent booking portal that integrates all the travel information you need – including the Sabre® global distribution system – right from your desktop. This intelligent capability delivers relevant content within your workflow, and generates additional revenue and new merchant sales opportunities through interactive offers. It’s ideal for Sabre ConnectedSM agents working in a flexible workflow environment either in an office or remotely.

KEY BENEFITS

  • Streamlines booking process with fast, reliable technology and integrated content
  • Boosts sales skills – delivers relevant content at the right time
  • Increases new revenue-generating opportunities through interactive offers

FEATURES

At the heart of MySabre is its ability to intelligently integrate your traditional Sabre® system booking tools with Web fares, other Sabre Travel Network booking tools and deeper localized content. The Sabre system is built into the portal so you never have to switch back and forth between booking tools, travel content and the Internet. Everything is located together right from your desktop.

MySabre reads the specific activities you are performing in the Sabre system and responds accordingly. It delivers relevant content at the right time to enhance the sales process. And it makes your job easier so you can provide faster service to more customers.

With its speed, reliability, ease of use and intelligent integration features, MySabre surpasses all other travel agency desktop solutions in the marketplace. It includes the following directly from your desktop:

  • Access the Sabre system and its Web fares – which are built directly into the system – and other bookable content from Agent59® last-minute deals, Sabre® Vacations, Sabre® Travel Protection, Sabre® Virtually There®, Specialty Bookings and Today’s Low Fares.  
  • Use the Sabre system with Point and Click to increase your productivity instead of typing formats which can be difficult to remember. Available for air, fares, Passenger Name Records (PNR), queues, cars, hotels, calendars, pre-reserve seats and quickly and easily add Other Service Information (OSI), Special Service Request (SSR), meals, special assistance and frequent flyer miles. Or if you prefer, use the Sabre system with formats. Either way, you select what works best for you.  
  • Seize cross-sell opportunities with interactive offers generated by the transactions you make. The Yellow BoxSM feature, for example, alerts you to better, value deals (better commissions, lower prices) than the one you’re booking, when applicable. You can then link directly to the better deals from the Sabre system screen to book them instead. 
  • Use pre-populated information to enhance sales consultations.  
  • Quickly access other helpful information, such as Agency eServices, travel alert messages, currency converter, destination details, Format FinderSM online help system graphical Sabre® PromoSpotsSM, hotel maps and photos, weather and more! 
     
  • Issue and modify tickets through MySabre’s graphical ticketing.

With everything you need right from your desktop, MySabre helps make your job easier so you can serve more customers faster.
