JetBlue finishes converting to Sabre Reservation System

After 5 negative responses to your description of the assumingly happy marriage of JetBlue and Sabre, I think that it is appropriate to say that the divorce was not necessarily a wise decision for the family JetBlue.

Was just JetBlue changing its imperfect spouse with another identical spouse? It is totally understood that JetBlue can not be without a spouse as celibacy is not an option in today’s airline industry. However, it was definitely a better idea to leave an undependable spouse for a somehow perfect one.

The reality is that we can not say that Navitaire and Sabre are imperfect reservation systems. We can cautiously say that Navitaire failed to deliver full satisfaction to JetBlue. By putting the hassle of the cutover aside, we can safely say that Sabre has not got the chance, as of yet, to prove its dependability.

For the record, I have been working with Sabre for about 18 years. So far, I have no problem with the system and its functionality.
