SOUTHLAKE, Texas, June 6, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Pan Am World Airways
Dominicana (PAWA) selected Sabre Corporation (NASDAQ: SABR) as
the airline's leading technology provider. PAWA will leverage the
breadth of Sabre's leading technology portfolio, including the
SabreSonic Customer Sales & Service reservations system,
Revenue Optimizer and Revenue Integrity solutions, as well as
Sabre's Market Intelligence solution. This will enable the carrier
to offer a reliable, efficient and profitable international air
transport service that drives tourism and economic growth.
Core to PAWA's technology transformation is migrating to the
SabreSonic reservations system, an integrated Software-as-a-Service
platform enabling personalized sales and service – including
passenger check-in, inventory and departure control – as well as
retailing and e-commerce solutions.
PAWA will also leverage other Sabre technology:
- Revenue Optimizer empowers PAWA to enhance multiple revenue
streams, sense and respond dynamically to rapidly changing market
conditions, and maximize market share while improving analyst
productivity and performance. This is done by breaking down
traditional data and system silos and leveraging real-time data
from the passenger service systems (PSS) and other Sabre commercial
planning solutions such as pricing.
- Revenue Integrity management tools will be a strategic element
in PAWA's overall revenue management capabilities. This will allow
PAWA to detect and optimize less profitable bookings, reduce and
normalize overbooking, eliminate inventory spoilage and improve
load factor.
- Market Intelligence (MIDT) will give PAWA the capability to
easily extract valuable decision-support information from GDS
booking transactions. MIDT allows for reporting on both
post-departure and advance bookings letting airlines measure the
impact of new pricing, marketing or sales initiatives.
Additionally, by using Market Intelligence PAWA will be able to
identify sales opportunities, set targets and monitor agencies,
which are significant sources of revenue.
"The SabreSonic reservations system and other software will
deliver new capabilities and flexible technology that will enhance
our ability to provide the best possible customer experience," said
Gary Stone, President and CEO of
PAWA. "Sabre's integrated product suite and strong IT expertise
will help our airline meet the growing demand as we grow to other
markets."
PAWA is one of many global carriers to select Sabre's technology
and passenger reservations system. Sabre's technology is used
by 225 airlines, including most of the world's largest carriers.
Sabre's broad suite of flexible and scalable software solutions
allows airlines to operate how they want to and adapt their
business to changing needs and requirements. Sabre's solutions
optimize day-to-day airline operations and ultimately help airlines
solve their biggest challenges – driving increased revenues,
reducing costs and delivering better travel experiences.
"We are excited to work with PAWA, a growing airline in the
Caribbean," said Greg Gilchrist, SVP and Chief Customer Officer,
Sabre Airline Solutions. "By delivering Sabre's unique
capabilities, we will support PAWA's goal to offer great service
that will expand tourism across the region. We look forward to
growing with them as they open new markets."
