SabreMosaic� Travel Marketplace unites the world's travel content in one platform to simplify operations and streamline travel selling
As a direct response to these mounting challenges, Sabre is introducing SabreMosaic� Travel Marketplace, which brings together the industry's widest breadth of travel content in one place, with built-in AI efficiencies and flexible connectivity.
"Every industry faces fragmentation in the digital age," said Jen Catto, Chief Marketing Officer at Sabre. "In advertising, it's fragmented attention. In broadcasting, it's fragmented programming. In finance, it's fragmented data. Travel has never been simple, but in today's multi-sourced content environment, fragmentation is creating new levels of complexity � and it's starting to take a real toll. Agencies told us clearly: they want simplicity. They want unified access. And they want technology that helps them serve travelers, not slow them down."
Highlights from the survey include:
75% of agencies say the number of content connections has grown over the past three years80% + believe unified access through a single platform would reduce technology costs- Nearly
90% manage four or more API integrations, with over half citing the tech burden as a challenge
At the same time, artificial intelligence (AI) is seen as a powerful remedy, with
A modern, AI-enabled marketplace that unites the whole world of travel
With the evolution of its distribution offering, Sabre has excelled beyond the traditional GDS to deliver a modern, cloud-native, and content-agnostic marketplace that supports Offer- and Order-based workflows, giving agencies the tools they need to thrive in a fragmented content landscape.
"Travel agencies shouldn't have to stitch together a dozen systems just to do their job," said Garry Wiseman, Chief Product and Technology Officer at Sabre. "SabreMosaic Travel Marketplace cuts through that complexity with a single, intelligent platform. It's not just about more content—it's about AI-powered tools that deliver the right content, smarter recommendations, and a streamlined way to sell. The GDS is just one of many tiles in our multi-source content mosaic. We are taking the guesswork out of how to incorporate AI into agency systems. Where others talk about transformation, we're delivering it to better service our customers, so they can better service theirs."
