Delta to bypass Sabre with new reservation system

The Atlanta Journal Constitution is reporting that Delta is building a new computer system that will "let travel agents book flights directly with the carrier, helping trim the $300 million spent annually on fare distributors such as Sabre Holdings Corp."

Here's the link:

system for travel agents

The article also says that Farelogix Inc. was hired on April 12 to do this work and that the new system will go live in the 4th quarter.
