Sabre Introduces First Real-Time Flight Tracking and Aircraft Situation Display
Solutions for Australian Aviation Market
SOUTHLAKE, Texas, Sept. 18 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --
Airservices Australia to deploy Flight Explorer in new National Operations Center
Sabre Airline Solutions announced today the launch of its newly acquired Flight Explorer
solution to the Australian commercial and business aviation market. This is a major
development for the Australian aviation community because real-time flight tracking has
not been available to the majority of Australian operators until now.
Sabre's Flight Explorer is the world's leading supplier of flight tracking and aircraft
situation display (ASD) solutions. Flight Explorer integrates flight tracking data with
powerful decision-support tools to provide the Australian aviation community information
required to improve operational efficiency and business performance. By incorporating
multiple data feeds, dynamic weather overlays, situational alerts, detailed maps and
forecast weather, Sabre's Flight Explorer product is an indispensable flight operations
management tool.
Airservices Australia will deploy Sabre's Flight Explorer in its new National Operations
Center (NOC).
"Sabre's Flight Explorer really stands out as a leading global ASD with its extensive
features, functionality and systems flexibility," said Matt Shepherd, optimisation manager
for Airservices Australia ATM. "Sabre's Flight Explorer Professional will provide the
Australian aviation community with a great new tool to increase the safety, efficiency and
performance of their flight operations."
The Australian market for Sabre's Flight Explorer services include airlines and cargo
carriers, charters and corporate flight departments, airports, fixed-based operators (FBOs),
ground transportation operators, and
pilots and aviation enthusiasts.
Flight Explorer was acquired by Sabre Holdings last week and is now part of the Sabre
Airline Solutions portfolio of airline products and services. Flight Explorer products are in
the process of being integrated into Sabre's Airline Solutions' portfolio including its
Dispatch Manager solution, part of Sabre's Flight Planning suite. Flight Explorer products
will also be offered as stand-alone solutions by Sabre Airline Solutions.
"This is exciting for Sabre as we launch our newly acquired Flight Explorer ASD
services to the Australian commercial and business aviation community," said Ilia Kostov,
vice president of Operations Solutions for Sabre Airline Solutions. "We know that Sabre's
new Flight Explorer solution will provide an invaluable service to airlines around the world."
With the addition of Australia flight tracking data, the Sabre Flight Explorer product has
expanded its international range of flight data in its core application to include the U.S.,
Canada, United Kingdom and New Zealand. Additional flight tracking coverage is
provided worldwide via ACARS, Satellite/GPS Tracking and data link integration.
Sabre's Flight Explorer suite of products includes its principal product Sabre FE
Professional. It also provides various web products -- Sabre FastTrack and Snapshot --
and flight and airport activity reports for
historical arrival and departure information. For more information or a free evaluation visit
will be on display in booth 28 at the Regional Australian Aviation Association's Annual
Conference September 17-19 in Coolum,
