3rd January 2012
September 6, 2022: Malaysia Airlines has expanded its long-standing relationship with Sabre Corporation, with a full suite of network planning and optimisation products as the airline plans to ramp up its operations. Sabre’s tools will aid Malaysia Airlines in taking critical decisions, forecast schedule profitability, matching capacity and demand, and improving aircraft utilisation and network connectivity in turn delivering robust schedules that are operationally feasible and profitable.
Bryan Foong, Group Chief Strategy Officer, Malaysia Airlines said: “With industry recovery progressing well, we’re firmly focused on providing optimum routes whilst ensuring the integrity of our flight schedules. As such, we’re thrilled to further cement our relationship with Sabre by selecting a full suite of network planning and scheduling solutions that will help the airline in designing the right schedules and deploying the right aircraft on the right route and time to maximize revenue opportunities, optimize costs and meet high traveller demand.”
Rakesh Narayanan, Vice President, Regional General Manager, Asia Pacific, Travel Solutions, Airline Sales said: “What is clear is that airline network planning and optimization is only becoming more complex. Airlines can no longer rely on historic data patterns to predict future demand and they are also facing challenges in ramping up capacity and continuing high fuel costs. So, it’s more important than ever that carriers have advanced technological solutions to predict future demand and adapt to market conditions so they can make the most of every route, every aircraft and every seat.”
With the surge in air travel, Malaysia Airlines’ primary focus is launching new routes, expanding codeshare partnerships, replacing aircraft and exploring sustainable aviation fuel options.
