OCTOBER 28, 2004 -- The Sabre Travel Network in the coming months will begin offering a menu of value-based pricing options for suppliers participating in the Sabre global distribution system, a direction conceptually similar to one taken this year by GDS operator Amadeus. Following the U.S. Department of Transportation's move to deregulate the GDS sector this summer, "we can now base pricing on a variety of factors," said Sam Gilliland, president and CEO of Sabre Holdings, in a conference call today with analysts. "Airlines will be able to choose based on their own characteristics."
