       Sabre Completes Tender Offer for Travelocity.com Outstanding Shares

SOUTHLAKE, Texas, April 8 -- Sabre Holdings Corporation (NYSE: TSG - news)
today announced the successful completion of its cash tender offer at $28.00
per share for the outstanding publicly held shares of Travelocity.com Inc.
(Nasdaq: TVLY - news) common stock that Sabre did not own.

The offer expired at midnight, New York City time, on Friday, April 5. Sabre
estimates that 14,337,359 shares of Travelocity common stock, including
guaranteed deliveries, were tendered. The tendered shares combined with the
Travelocity stock already owned by Sabre represent approximately 96 percent of
Travelocity's outstanding common stock, on an as-converted basis. Sabre has
accepted for payment all validly tendered shares and will make prompt payment
to the depositary for the accepted shares.

Sabre expects to complete a "short-form" merger in which Travelocity will
become a wholly owned Sabre company. In the merger, each share of Travelocity
common stock that was not tendered, other than shares owned by Sabre and
stockholders validly exercising appraisal rights under Delaware law, will be
converted into a right to receive $28.00 in cash without interest. Completion
of the merger is expected on April 11.
