SOUTHLAKE, Texas – March 19, 2026 – Aven Hospitality (formerly Sabre Hospitality Solutions) has achieved Elite status in Expedia Group's Connectivity Partner Program, a status reserved for partners with the highest level of integration and strategic engagement to bring top-tier connectivity to hotels.

“We’re pleased to welcome Aven Hospitality back as an Elite Connectivity Partner, a status they’ve earned through tremendous focus and execution throughout 2025,” said Chris Hodges, Vice President, Global Connectivity and Partner Solutions at Expedia Group. “By leaning into opportunities like being one of the first to develop our dynamic child pricing API and maintaining strong engagement with our teams, Aven Hospitality has shown real commitment to driving more value for travelers and our mutual lodging partners. We look forward to building on this momentum together in 2026 and beyond.”

This connectivity allows Aven Hospitality customers to centrally manage availability, rates, and inventory in SynXis for distribution to Expedia.com and affiliate channels, and results in benefits such as:

• Dynamic child pricing API: Enables properties to define and distribute child rates dynamically by age band and occupancy, to better cater to family traveler demand.
• More accurate room availability and pricing: Because Elite status requires the strongest connectivity with Expedia Group, customers see rates and availability reflected accurately, increasing booking integrity.
• More reliable booking experiences: High API success rates mean reservations process smoothly, increasing traveler confidence. 

“Aven Hospitality is proud to be recognized again as an Elite Connectivity Partner,” said Ethan Wiseman, Head of Distribution, Product Management at Aven Hospitality. “This designation reflects our commitment to delivering the high-quality connectivity, accurate inventory management, and operational reliability that our customers depend on to drive performance.”
