Hawaiian Airlines Integrates Passenger Service System with Alaska Airlines
Hawaiian Airlines transitioned to the same Sabre (SABR) passenger service system used by Alaska Airlines (ALK), a significant integration milestone that provides guests flying with Alaska Airlines and Hawaiian Airlines a more seamless and consistent travel experience from booking to boarding across a growing global network. The combined company's shared PSS serves as the central reservation technology that connects the digital tools and programs used by guests and employees; from websites, mobile app, Atmos Rewards and Huaka'i by Hawaiian loyalty programs, to airport kiosks and reservation records.
