In response to the growing number of [digital travel platforms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/expedia-group), Internova Travel Group is asking consumers to 'Book Human' in its latest campaign, of the same name. The ad, which includes a commerical that features a [futurist robot as a travel agent](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hmnd-01), points out the dangers of relying on technology when there are times when dealing with an actual person is more beneficial.

In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, many realized the frustrations of trying to rectify [travel disruptions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/travel-changed-me). “Individuals and families left stranded with no refunds and limited support gave way to a climate of extreme frustration,” said Internova CEO J.D. O’Hara. “Many realized that getting travel wrong—personal or business—can have very real, very strenuous consequences.”
