SOUTHLAKE, Texas, Jan. 11, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Sabre
Corporation (NASDAQ: SABR), the leading software and
technology provider that powers the global travel industry,
announces the expansion of SafePoint, a travel risk management
product, to include global travel restriction tracking. Whilst the
solution is not limited to a singular event, it provides
information regarding the spread of COVID 19 and new variants as
well as destination entry restrictions imposed by countries
including masks, vaccinations, health documentation and quarantine
requirements.
SafePoint monitors world events in near real-time, 24/7. It
utilizes hundreds of data sources for events and restrictions that
may impact travel arrangements and/or traveler safety. It helps
Sabre's travel agencies and corporate customers make more informed
decisions and enhance the safety of their travelers by alerting
them to restrictions that may impact their itinerary. Travelers
will then be able to use the information to take action at any
stage of their trip.
"As travel rebounds, we believe a duty-of-care and crisis
alerting solution is imperative to any travel business, especially
in a world where travel advisories can change rapidly. SafePoint is
designed to keep travelers and corporate travel managers apprised
of critical events in a fast-moving world," said Saunvit Pandya,
Senior Director of Product Management, Sabre. "We are delighted to
work with customers to provide them duty-of-care products to better
service their travelers".
"In the current travel landscape, having instant access to
travel restriction information is critical to making the right
travel-related decisions. Sabre's SafePoint provides us timely
information to help us better serve our customers. It is a trusted
source of information from a trusted partner," said Anna McGurk, Operations Director, Norad Travel
UK.
While travel has been significantly impacted by the COVID-19
pandemic, there have been signs of recovery in the travel industry.
Sabre is committed to support this safe return of travel by
providing our customers solutions that allow duty-of-care and
traveler safety now and into the future.
