Sabre Corporation announced it is launching Sabre Red Launchpad to simplify booking travel. The tool, according to the company, provides agents with easy access to AI-powered capabilities and multisource content, without the need for “deep” Global Distribution System (GDS) expertise.

Sabre Red Launchpad supports air (traditional, New Distribution Capability, low-cost carrier), hotel and car content. Designed as an extension of Sabre’s flagship interface Sabre Red 360, Sabre Red Launchpad, said the announcement, eliminates the complexity of creating and managing travel reservations while introducing new consumer grade shopping experiences. By minimizing training time, Sabre Red Launchpad empowers travel consultants to begin earning commissions faster by unlocking multisource content available in Sabre’s marketplace.

Launch partner Internova Travel Group released Internova SNAP, a custom version of Sabre Red Launchpad, to thousands of US-based advisors earlier this year. As of October, over 300 agencies and 13,000 advisors were using SNAP, driving an increase in overall sales volume, according to the announcement.

Peter Vlitas, executive vice president, partner relations at Internova, said the network needed a solution for advisors who were not using a GDS but wanted to enhance client service and unlock new revenue opportunities. By collaborating closely with Internova’s distribution team, he said, “Sabre developed this intuitive booking tool, empowering our agents to not only thrive in modern airline retailing but also make more money.”

Kathy Morgan, senior vice president of product management, distribution experience, Sabre Travel Solutions, said Sabre Red Launchpad “makes it easier to tap into Sabre’s extensive and multisource travel content and generate revenue from Day 1.”
