I'm working on a Python wrapper for Sabre Dev Studio's APIs if you're interested, though it's still very much a work in progress.

It seems like most of the interesting data is in the SOAP APIs, which I haven't tested out yet. Apparently to use them you need to obtain additional credentials from Sabre….so you can't just create a client ID/secret pair like you can with the REST APIs.

As far as I know, the REST APIs don't allow you to query seat availability directly, it just provides an interface to various tools like searching through the cache of recently searched flights, etc.

If you want any more info or help with the REST APIs, send me a PM, I've been playing around with them for a couple months now
