Travel Management for First Nations Organizations
Inspired’s work with First Nations organizations has grown largely through referrals; a reflection of the relationships and trust we prioritize. We provide dedicated travel support for organizations looking for a partner who understands their travellers, communicates clearly, and respects the unique needs of their community and leadership teams.
Every organization deserves a travel partner that treats their people, priorities, and logistics with care. Inspired works with the full breadth of First Nations organizations across Canada — and understands the difference between them.
We take care of every aspect of your travel. Flights, hotels, ground transport, changes, and cancellations. Your team stops being the travel department the day you start working with us.
Learn More →From Chiefs and Senior Leadership to Elders travelling for important engagements, we provide the level of care and consistent attention your most important travellers deserve — every time.
Learn More →Our Canadian agents are available around the clock. Not an overseas call centre — real people who know your file, know your travellers, and can act immediately when something goes wrong.
Learn More →In 2018, a First Nations organization was referred to Inspired through their network. There was no flashy sales pitch. They were simply looking for a better travel experience, and they found it with us.
From there, relationships grew organically. One organization referred another, and over time, that trust expanded across Band Councils, Development Corporations, Police Services, Foundations, and affiliated organizations throughout Canada.
What became very clear was that many had grown frustrated with traditional travel management companies. Not because of one major issue, but because of the constant friction.
Inspired was built differently.
We believe organizations deserve a dedicated travel partner who understands their travellers, responds quickly, and provides consistent, personal support at every stage of the journey.

Name, Title, Organization
The year we began working with First Nations organizations. What started with inbound clients has grown through referrals and community connections.
Flat fee per itinerary, regardless of complexity. No hidden fees, no per-change charges, no surprises.
In-house Canadian agents available around the clock. When something goes wrong at 11pm, your traveller is not alone.
Guaranteed response time during business hours. You will always hear back from your dedicated agent quickly.
Not every travel request arrives with time to spare. This is the story of a large community gathering that required over 80 rooms across three cities, booked during peak summer when availability was near zero. No lead time. No margin for error. This is what a dedicated travel partner looks like under pressure.
22 rooms in Prince George. 22 in Williams Lake. 38+ in Vancouver. All during peak summer, when most properties were at or near capacity.
Direct outreach to hotel sales teams across all three destinations at once. One partner relocated their own guests to a sister property to create availability.
Every attendee accommodated. Every evolving request managed. Organizers never had to chase a single detail throughout the process.
Planning something similar? Start with how we pulled this one off.
We’ve built our service around the things that matter most to the organizations we work with. A real agent who knows your travellers, genuine support for leadership and Elder travel, and someone available when things go wrong — coast to coast, around the clock.
We handle everything. Flights, hotels, ground transport, changes, and cancellations. Your office team stops being the travel department the day you start working with us.
Our Canadian in-house agents are available around the clock. When a connection is missed or a flight to a remote community is cancelled after hours, your traveller has someone in their corner immediately.
Chiefs, Elders, and senior leaders receive the level of attention their role requires. Business class, accessible hotels, preferred seating, and patient, attentive service a portal cannot provide.
Every trip earns points. We manage your organization's reward programs across all bookings, making sure nothing is left on the table and your organization gets full value from its travel spend.
All bookings, all travellers, in one place. Our TripScape app gives your team full visibility across every itinerary, accessible from anywhere, without any manual administration.
All travel consolidated, coded correctly, and reported clearly. Your finance team gets full visibility without manual reconciliation. No personal card reimbursements, no chasing receipts.
Chiefs, Elders, and senior leaders travel regularly for national assemblies, government consultations, and inter-organizational engagements. Many have accessibility or specialized requirements that standard booking systems are not designed to accommodate.
We manage this as part of our day-to-day service. Our advisors work closely with leadership travellers, understand their needs, and ensure every itinerary is handled with precision and care.
What we heard from our clients when they came to us
When new organizations came to us, a consistent theme emerged: leadership and Elder travellers had accessibility needs that were being handled inconsistently, or not at all.
Different agents on every booking meant requirements had to be re-explained each time. Accessible rooms were requested but not confirmed, and assistance was sometimes missed or incorrectly arranged.
These aren't complex issues. They come down to consistency and accountability: having one dedicated agent who knows your travellers and takes ownership of the details.
That's what we provide, as standard — not as an add-on.
Managing travel expenses across a team shouldn’t create more work for your office. Our billing structure is built around the way First Nations organizations actually operate, with flexibility that the large providers don’t offer.
We invoice at the time of booking, with payment due within 30 days. For organizations where accessing corporate credit cards can be a challenge, this is a significant advantage. Your leadership and staff travel when they need to, and your finance team has a clear, predictable payment window to work within rather than being asked to pay immediately upfront.
Every booking generates its own invoice, giving your finance team a clear paper trail from the moment travel is confirmed. No chasing receipts, no surprise charges — just clean documentation for every trip, every traveller.
For travellers without a corporate card, we can pre-pay room and tax directly for $30 per room. We'll provide a simple incidentals form so the hotel has everything they need at check-in. Your traveller arrives prepared, and your office doesn't have to manage.
When travel billing runs through us, your staff are never out of pocket waiting to be reimbursed. That removes a friction point that affects both the traveller and your finance team, and it means your expense process stays clean from start to finish.

ITG is at the very top of my list. Inspired Travel has served Carmanah for a number of years now, and have provided great value to our organization, including low admin fees, great reporting for our accounting staff and superior support after hours. Response time is really important to them.

Everything you need to know about working with Inspired. If you have a question that isn’t covered here, reach out directly and your dedicated agent will be happy to help.
We work with Chiefs and Band Councils, development corporations, First Nations police services and associations, cultural foundations, and nation offices and affiliated organizations. If your organization manages travel for leadership, staff, or members, we can help.
Every organization we work with is assigned a dedicated agent. That agent learns your travellers, your preferences, and your specific requirements. When you call, you are not starting over. Your agent knows your file, knows your people, and takes personal responsibility for your travel.
We handle accessibility requirements as a standard part of the booking process, not as a special request. Business class, accessible hotel rooms confirmed at time of booking, preferred seating, and mobility requirements documented and applied automatically on every booking. Our agents know your leadership travellers personally and take the time to get the details right.
Our first First Nations clients came to us directly in early 2018. They had specific needs, a clear sense of what good service looked like, and a frustration with not receiving it. They stayed and referred others. What started as inbound interest has grown through referrals and community connections, and we are now actively building relationships with organizations across Canada.
The $30 flat fee covers the full management of each travel itinerary, regardless of how many segments, changes, or bookings are involved. There are no hidden fees, no per-change charges, and no surprises.
Yes. Our in-house Canadian agents are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. This is not an overseas call centre. When something goes wrong outside of business hours, your traveller is connected to a real agent who knows their file and can act immediately.
