Schaeffer, the founder of the firm, has also returned as director and also president of Zoomaway Nevada.

Zoomaway Travel Inc (CVE:ZMA) announced that Sean Schaeffer has been appointed as interim president and chief executive of the leisure and tech group with effect from August 29.

The same day, Dan Morgan resigned as interim president and chief executive of Zoomaway Travel, and as president of Zoomaway Nevada Inc.

"The board thanks Mr. Morgan for his service to the company and wishes him the best in his future endeavours," the firm said in a brief statement  today.

Schaeffer, the founder of the firm,  has returned as director and also president of Zoomaway Nevada.

In July this year, it was reported that Schaeffer has given up the role of chief executive officer to focus on being the company's business development manager.

In addition, effective from August 28 this year, Robert Cashell has resigned as a director of the company.

Last week, the group said it had signed a white-label agreement to provide its booking and reservation solution platform for the Napa Valley Wine Train.

The train has been running in California since 1864, running through one of the world's top wine-growing regions.

Zoomaway's scalable white-label technology platform will be working behind the scenes on the Napa Valley Wine Train web site, enabling customers planning to visit the Napa Valley to book their Wine Train experience and in the same transaction sort out the overnight accommodation.

Zoomaway provides hotels, golf resorts and ski resorts, among others, an integrated technology platform that allows for the discounted packaging of lodging, ski, golf, activities and attractions.
