Computer-based systems and methods for providing real-time collaborative travel planning among a group of travelers. The systems and methods may use an Internet website that provides travelers with real-time visibility into both planned and/or booked travel itineraries of the traveling companions for a particular journey. When a traveler books or selects part of the traveler's itinerary, notifications of the booking or selection may be sent to the other travelers in the group. Various embodiments of the present invention provide for real-time interactive discussions by the traveling companions about the journey. Throughout the life of the journey, each traveler may collaborate with his or her traveling companions to plan the most efficient journey utilizing real-time visibility of each traveler's itinerary.
