Saudi Arabian Airlines and Sabre Airline Solutions signed four
separate agreements for advanced technology business solutions in
Jeddah, Saudi Arabia during a gala ceremony today that will help the
airline deliver outstanding service to its passengers.
These four agreements, which involve the implementation of Saudi
Arabian Airlines' three-year IT transformation programme as part of
its IT Master Plan, are important elements of the airline's goals,
including improving the passengers' customer experience.
"The implementation of these systems will improve the passenger
experience through increasing the reliability, resilience and
competitiveness of Saudi Arabian Airlines," said Khalid Almolhem,
Director General of Saudi Arabian Airlines. "We selected Sabre Airline
Solutions to provide these important solutions because of their

willingness to partner with us for success."
Sabre Airline Solutions, the global leader of software and
services for the airline industry from planning through execution,
believes its technology will help the airline achieve its goals of
being a leading, world-class carrier.
"Saudi Arabian Airlines has purchased our world-leading solutions
in order to improve the performance of their airline," said Steve
Clampett, President of Airline Products and Solutions for Sabre
Airline Solutions. "The airline will be receiving the exact same
solutions we provide to world-leading airlines including British
Airways, Air France, American Airlines, Japan Airlines and Singapore
Airlines. When implementation is complete, Saudi Arabian Airlines will
have the most advanced versions of these solutions in airline
operations. These solutions have proven to provide measurable
operational and financial improvements for our airline customers."

"We are not simply buying technology," said Almolhem. "We are
buying a business solution that will improve our passenger experience
through better on-time performance, further competitive fares and
schedules, and an efficient and profitable operation."
The solutions will be used by the airline for its primary

About Saudi Arabian Airlines
Saudi Arabian Airlines is the largest airline in the Middle East
and North Africa, and the flag carrier of Saudi Arabia. It started out
in 1945 with a single twin-engined DC-3(Dakota) HZ-AAX given to King
Abdul Aziz as a gift by the then U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt.
This was followed months later with the purchase of two more DC-3s,
and these formed the nucleus of what in later years was to become one
of the world's largest airlines.
Today Saudi Arabian Airlines has some ninety one (91) aircrafts,
including the latest and most advanced wide-bodied jets presently
available, flies to more than ninety (90) destinations worldwide, and
has carried more than eighteen (18) million passengers in 2007.
The Saudi Arabian Airlines Data Processing Centre was opened in
Jeddah in the year 1971. Today, it has evolved to become one of the
largest Data Centres in the region. It serves the operation of Saudi
Arabian Airlines with business Applications and a domestic and
international data and communications network.
