Sabre Hospitality extends long-term deal with Wyndham

Sabre Hospitality, a division of Sabre Corporation, has announced the renewal of its long-term agreement with Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, the world’s largest hotel franchisor with more hotels than any other company in the world. 
 
Under this renewed agreement, Wyndham will continue to utilise Sabre's cloud-based SynXis Central Reservation System (CRS) to manage its operations, reaffirming Sabre Hospitality as their exclusive global central reservation system provider for nearly two decades. 
 
SynXis CRS is the leading global hospitality commerce and distribution platform, enabling hoteliers to achieve their strategic goals with streamlined distribution, centralized control, and greater flexibility. With this renewal, Wyndham will continue to benefit from efficient pricing and inventory management, extensive global distribution connectivity, robust bulk upload tools, and a fully integrated guest profile linked to its Wyndham Rewards program. The platform will also help Wyndham to maintain its competitive advantage while continuing to deliver memorable experiences to guests.
 
“We are thrilled to continue our long-standing relationship with Wyndham Hotels & Resorts,” said Gene Guhne, senior vice president, global managing director, enterprise sales for Sabre Hospitality. “This agreement is a testament to the strength and reliability of the SynXis platform. We are dedicated to supporting Wyndham’s strategy by delivering innovative solutions that meet the evolving needs of their global portfolio.”
 
Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, renowned for its extensive global footprint, operates 25 brands comprising over 9,100 hotels across 95 countries. With nearly 70 million transactions annually, Wyndham remains committed to providing industry-leading technology to its global portfolio of franchisees and hotel operators. This extended partnership underscores the enduring power of the SynXis platform, known for its stability, security, and scalability.
 
“Our collaboration with Sabre Hospitality has been instrumental in our ability to offer superior technology solutions to our franchisees and hotel operators,” said Scott Strickland, Chief Commercial Officer (CCO) of Wyndham Hotels & Resorts. “The SynXis platform has consistently provided the stability and flexibility we need to enhance our operations and deliver exceptional guest experiences. We look forward to many more years of success together.”
 
Earlier this spring, Sabre achieved a landmark milestone by migrating over 5,000 Wyndham properties to the SynXis Property Hub, including a record-breaking transition of 550 hotels in a single month, nearly a year ahead of schedule. This significant achievement highlights the platform’s ability to support large-scale operations seamlessly, a statement said. - TradeArabia News Service

Euroairlines marks 25 years with 150% jump in turnover

The Euroairlines Group, a Spanish company specialising in air transport and distribution, is celebrating its 25th anniversary at Fitur with historic results. 
 
The group has increased its turnover from 5 million euros in 2023 to more than 12 million in 2024, representing a 150% growth.
 
The success of 2024 is due to the implementation of operational optimisation strategies and the diversification of services, elements that have significantly improved financial indicators. In the last financial year, the company's Ebitda improved by 50%, bringing it closer to the break-even point which is expected to be reached in the second half of 2025.
 
With the aim of consolidating sustainable growth, the Euroairlines Group has carried out capital increases that have allowed the company to enhance its equity, which will help achieve the aforementioned goal of reaching financial balance by the middle of the current fiscal year.
 
In recent months, Euroairlines has signed agreements with major airlines such as GOL, Azul and Ethiopian, which will allow the company to continue to grow in turnover. In fact, the revenues forecast for 2025 will double those achieved last year to over 25 million euros. In addition, the latest agreements will allow Euroairlines Group to consolidate its international presence and become a global benchmark in innovation in air distribution solutions, quality and sustainability, the company said.
 
Since its foundation in 2000, the Euroairlines Group has stood out for its capacity for innovation and adaptation to the aeronautical market. Throughout its 25-year history, the group has been developing and consolidating different aviation businesses, such as airline operator, consultancy, commercial services/BPO and distribution, going from start-up to become one of the ‘big four’ airline distribution companies, with presence in more than 60 markets around the world.
 
This anniversary and the historic increase in turnover mark a milestone for the company, which continues its commitment to technology, sustainability and customer satisfaction as fundamental pillars of its business model. 
 
Euroairlines Group CEO Antonio López-Lázaro explains that these results “reflect the success of a strategy and the collective effort of all members of the company to overcome limits.” 
 
“Our goal is to continue growing and providing added value to our customers”, he adds. -TradeArabia News Service
