Sabre hates competition, alleges US Airways

Filed under: , ,

US AirwaysCan't they all just get along?

Not long after American Airlines sued Orbitz, alleging anticompetitive behavior, another airline is suing link in the travel supply chain. US Airways is going after Sabre on antitrust grounds, Reuters reports. The airline believes that Sabre "shuts out competition and drives up prices."

For US Airways, this is a pretty big deal, as it books 35 percent of its revenue through Sabre. That's an awful lot of dependence.

Airlines, online travel agencies and global distribution systems have been battling each other since November, when American Airlines announced that it was pulling out of Orbitz. Since then, the number of skirmishes has accumulated to all-out war.
