Farelogix provides a suite of SaaS solutions that enables carriers to dynamically create, control, optimise and deliver personalised and differentiated offers across sales channels. These airline-controlled retailing, merchandising and distribution capabilities complement Sabre's existing retailing and merchandising solutions and future product roadmap.

Sabre president & CEO Sean Menke said: "Farelogix's investments in offer management and NDC order delivery will help us accelerate our plans to deliver future-ready retailing, distribution and fulfillment solutions that unlock increased value for the industry. By integrating Farelogix's capabilities into Sabre's leading airline technology platform, we'll be able to offer the innovative and comprehensive solutions that airlines require, backed by best-in-class technology and the deep expertise that our teams bring to market."
Building upon Farelogix's GDS- and PSS-agnostic capabilities, Sabre expects to drive faster innovation in the dynamic and highly competitive airline IT space to enable airlines to accelerate their own growth and profitability while benefiting customers across the travel ecosystem.
Farelogix CEO Jim Davidson said: "For the past few years, Farelogix and Sabre have worked together with shared customers to implement our complementary technologies to solve some of the industry's toughest challenges. Today's announcement is a natural evolution of the successful, ongoing collaboration between our two companies. Sabre shares our vision for innovation and has the leading technology, resources, and global presence to help us scale our solutions and grow our customer base."
Sabre's agreement to acquire Farelogix is the next step in its broader effort to become the preferred platform at the centre of the business of travel. Among other innovations, Sabre recently launched its digital commercial airline platform with several carriers, delivering end-to-end personalised retailing capabilities to maximise revenue and create a differentiated brand experience. In addition, through its Beyond NDC program, Sabre is partnering with a host of airlines and travel agencies to drive the travel industry forward through the design, development, integration and testing of end-to-end capabilities to process NDC-enabled offers and orders. The acquisition and integration of Farelogix technology will help Sabre accelerate these innovation efforts.
