We’re bringing the fun to Las Vegas. The brightest minds will gather together under one roof on June 24 and 25 with a common goal: to reinvent travel by creating frictionless, unified and personalized experiences for today’s traveler.
Building on Sabre’s platform, developers are given 24 hours to use different services and tools to create the next big thing that helps take travel to the next level. If you’ve got what it takes, we’d love to see you shine. Registration for the hackathon is free, but this hack is only open to a limited number of spots, so don’t delay!
