Canadian members will also have access to SNAP
ALEXANDRIA, VA (June 8, 2024) — In April 2024, Travel Leaders Network introduced SNAP to their U.S. members. An easy-to-use booking tool, SNAP’s graphic interface gives non-GDS users the ability to quickly and efficiently book their clients’ travel while leading them to greater earning opportunities. On the heels of its success, TLN has announced it will make SNAP available to Canadian members on July 2, 2024.
SNAP is exclusive to Travel Leaders Network and is powered by Sabre. Users of the tool need no specialized knowledge to use SNAP, making it a great option for those new to the industry, or travel advisors who do not wish to use a GDS. With a few clicks, travel advisors can prepare options for their clients with air, car and hotel.
“SNAP is sophistication wrapped in simplicity,” said Seth Burton, Vice President, Distribution and Advisor Workflow, at Internova Travel Group, TLN’s parent company. “With SNAP, travel advisors of all experience and skill levels have the chance to impress their clients and increase their earnings, providing TLN members with a truly competitive advantage.”
Over 300 agencies and 3,000 advisors are currently live on SNAP. Over $1 million in volume has been generated through SNAP with an average commission of $185 per air booking. SNAP also prioritizes properties in TLN’s portfolio of hotel partners through the SELECT, CURATED and Worldwide hotel programs. Combined with TLN’s Cruise Complete booking tool for cruising, TLN members have intuitive tools to serve their clients.
John Bullard, owner of Magical Enchanted Vacations, a Travel Leaders Network agency owner, recently signed his 400 ICs up for SNAP. “Many of our advisors, especially those who are younger or new to the industry, don’t use a GDS. SNAP gives them the power of a GDS but makes it as easy to use as any consumer booking website.”
The SNAP team continues to innovate and refine the tool. In June, SNAP will release support for Traveler Profiles. Advisors will be able to build and store profiles, which will eliminate the need to type in passenger details for a repeat traveler. Also coming soon is a redesigned Checkout Page and Agent Dashboard.
Beginning July 2, 2024, advisors in Canada will gain access to SNAP for hotel and car rental bookings, with air capabilities to come in the future.
“Not all advisors use a classic GDS, which can be intimidating,” said Christine James, Vice President, Travel Leaders Network Canada. “But while SNAP may be simple, it is packed with serious technology, which makes it a powerful tool for travel advisors to work smarter while earning more. We’re excited to bring SNAP to Canada in the near future.”
