Notas do Editor
The printing press first helped people more widely find out what was going on in the world, through the creation of newspapers and magazines. Then through TV and the telephone, we could access information in real-time (Remember calling for movie times, weather and the time?). Today, the Internet allows people to have all that information at their fingertips. Smartphones and mobile apps gave people access to those websites from anywhere. People want their information with the least amount of clicks possible, which is why mobile apps have evolved into basically simplified versions of a website.

Sabre Red Apps have the ability to be quickly and easily integrated into your workflow. Once an app is downloaded it will quickly become part of your normal workflow. With easy to use apps, they will only benefit each and every booking you make. Agencies access the Red App Centre to search for a wide range of applications. Here they can find and purchase a Red App that best meets their needs. The Red App can then be quickly deployed down to individual users. The result? A truly flexible agency ready to serve its customers' needs.
