Sabre Holdings has announced a new multi-year agreement for airlines enrolled in its Participating Carrier Agreement.

The new Direct Connect Availability (DCA) Three-Year Option guarantees Sabre Holdings access

to all published fares, promotions, and services of a participating airline and commits the carrier to a three-year term at the highest level of participation in Sabre's global distribution system (GDS), in exchange for an established booking fee rate.

US Airways has already enrolled in the Three-Year Option, thus enabling Sabre-connected travel agents, offline and online, to book all US Airways' content, including web fares, through the Sabre GDS.
