GetThere is a corporate travel reservation system that is owned by Sabre Holdings. GetThere first started in 1995 as a web-based booking tool named Internet Travel Network (itn.net) founded by Dan Whaley, Al Whaley and Bruce Yoxsimer, and was acquired by Sabre in August 2000 for $757 million.[1] Following the acquisition, GetThere merged with the Sabre Business Travel Solutions system. It is now a part of Sabre Travel Network. The first airline reservation (SFO-LAS) ever made over the World Wide Web was made on June 5, 1995 through an ITN server in Palo Alto, CA.
