Sabre subscribers once again have access to Emirates content.<\/p>\n
The two companies announced a new distribution agreement, ending an impasse that had resulted in Emirates tickets and ancillary products not being available in Sabre’s GDS since July 1. The agreement is in effect.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Along with distributing content on Sabre through legacy GDS Edifact technology, Emirates will also begin distributing NDC-enabled offers through Sabre.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sabre said Emirates content has been reintroduced without surcharges.\u00a0Emirates enacted a surcharge of $14 to $25 for GDS bookings on July 1, but also announced an agreement that day under which Travelport-connected agencies would be exempt from the fee.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Emirates had implemented the GDS surcharge in conjunction with its launch of an N<\/span>DC-powered direct-connect portal for travel agencies.<\/span><\/p>\n
