CUSTOMER Belinda Wakeling is pictured making history for global distribution system Sabre, after walking into North America Travel Services’ London office and buying a London to Los Angeles trip for January 1, 2000.

Eric Speck, president of Sabre Travel Informationnetwork, said the GDS company was “thoroughly prepared” for 2000bookings, after successfully delivering year 2000-compliant desktop solutions and hardware to agents.
