Internova SNAP is a vital component of that effort. It also gives our independent travel advisors a simpler way to shop and book travel, helping them retain clients and build a competitive advantage in the marketplace.

Internova SNAP was built in partnership with Sabre to create an innovative, easy-to-use platform for travel advisors to book flights, hotels and rental cars
ALEXANDRIA, VA (April 3, 2024) — Travel Leaders Network, part of Internova Travel Group and the largest network of professional travel advisors in North America, is today rolling out an innovative new booking tool for thousands of its members across the United States.
Internova SNAP, which provides one-stop shopping for flights, hotels and car rentals, is a customized, proprietary online booking tool developed by Sabre in partnership with Internova Travel Group, one of the world’s largest travel services companies. Internova’s information technology and revenue management teams invested thousands of hours in the project, sharing their expertise to create a new platform that is efficient, convenient and easy to use.
Internova SNAP equips travel advisors with a cutting-edge graphical booking tool that helps them shop and book flight, hotel and rental car itineraries with only a few clicks, enabling them to view multiple price options, compare vendors and add a client’s loyalty account number. They can book one-way, roundtrip or multi-city flights for multiple passengers, in addition to adding special requests and seat assignments.
Internova SNAP reduces training time for travel advisors who are new to the industry and provides a more accessible option for independent consultants who do not currently use an aggregator or GDS for travel supplier content. This new booking tool supports NDC offers, low-cost carrier content and traditional fare data for the airline industry, as well as hotel content, including Internova’s SELECT Hotels & Resorts, WORLDWIDE Hotels & Resorts and CURATED Hotels & Resorts programs. It also offers access to the luxury property inventory of Bonotel Exclusive Travel, another Internova Travel Group company.
“One of the biggest challenges that we face as a sector is recruiting new talent,” said Roger Block, President, Travel Leaders Network. “We need modern retailing tools that will help those new to the industry become successful without having to learn a complicated language. Internova SNAP is a vital component of that effort. It also gives our independent travel advisors a simpler way to shop and book travel, helping them retain clients and build a competitive advantage in the marketplace.”
Internova SNAP comes on the heels of launching Cruise Complete, Travel Leaders Network’s proprietary tool developed exclusively for its member advisors to compare and book a wide selection of cruise vacations through one intuitive, web-based system. It was introduced in 2023 and is now available to members in the United States and Canada.
Cruise Complete provides Travel Leaders Network members with access to exclusive and complimentary cruise programs, including more than 3,500 specialty departures around the world, such as Distinctive Voyages, Culinary Collection and Amenity Departure Dates.
