Travel & Technology

In the 1990’s and 2000’s the Internet revolutionized travel, with The Traina Companies (Tco) at the forefront of this dramatic shift—and still leading the way in creative travel solutions. 

Tco’s travel subsidiary, InTravel, owns and manages multiple travel and technology assets including but not limited to InteleTravel.com, Hickory Global Partners, and BusinessTravel.com. IT and HGP utilize proprietary technology to effectuate a seamless process for their respective clients. Both companies have more than 70 years of combined experience and success, currently managing $1B in global travel sales. 

Investments in these cutting-edge search tools are vital to Tco’s mission of competing aggressively in the 21st century economy— which has been characterized by explosive growth in technology. 

With internet bookings on the rise, Tco—through its subsidiaries—is committed to offering the best available travel products on the market while simultaneously improving and modernizing operations. 

The corporate and leisure traveler have very different needs. For the leisure traveler, the possibilities are endless—from beach getaways and ocean activities to tours of historic destinations and cultural excursions. Corporate travel is inherently more focused, as these travelers are primarily focused on convenience and completing tasks within a short window. However, they do share a common interest: a seamless travel experience. And that’s exactly what we offer.
