SOUTHLAKE, Texas - Dec 27, 2016 - Sabre Corporation (NASDAQ: SABR) has named Wade Jones as interim president, Travel Network, to lead its global distribution system (GDS) business while it conducts a search to replace Sean Menke, who was promoted to Sabre's president and CEO, effective Dec. 31.

Jones joined Sabre in 2015 as senior vice president, Travel Network marketing and strategy. He has played a key role in business development and technology initiatives, including the integration of Abacus, the Singapore-based GDS business that Sabre acquired in 2015. Sabre now holds a leading position in three of its four major operating regions (North America, Latin America and Asia-Pacific). He has also been instrumental as Sabre prepares to launch its new Sabre Red platform for travel agents in mid-2017. In addition to the interim duties, Jones will continue to be responsible for marketing and strategy.

'Wade has been an invaluable part of the Sabre Travel Network leadership team. Since he joined Sabre in January 2015, he has demonstrated a proven track record for evolving the Travel Network marketing and strategy area and leveraged his experience in meeting customer business needs through innovative product development. His strong working relationship with the Sabre Product & Technology team will also be an asset to the TN organization and our customers as he takes on these additional duties,' said Menke.
