For the first time, Air Canada Vacations is not releasing a print brochure promoting its winter product. 'Dream of Sun,' the home of the tour operator's 2022-2023 Sun Collection, is only available in digital form.
The interactive digital brochure features over 600 mostly all-inclusive hotels across 38 destinations, including 67 new additions, three resorts exclusive to Air Canada Vacations and 29 semi-exclusive resorts.
The digital brochure's interactive design features images, video and editorial content including destination highlights with the capabilities to search by hotel name, category, or popular filters like hotels where kids stay free.
Travel professionals can guide their customers by sharing links of vacation packages, allowing them to easily review the new ACV sun collection, plan their dream escape and contact their trusted agent when they're ready to book.
"The challenges our industry faced over the past two years gave Air Canada Vacations an opportunity to reimagine the way our business works. With more and more travel agents working virtually, it was important for us to provide them with all the resources necessary to find the perfect vacation for our shared customers," says Nino Montagnese, Vice President at Air Canada Vacations.
"The Dream of Sun digital brochure offers travel professionals a simple tool to help their customers plan their often long-awaited vacation. With this launch, we are proud to solidify our market position by leading the charge in digital-first initiatives."
Air Canada Vacations is once again highlighting LGBTQ+ friendly hotels, so that Canadians can enjoy their time under the sun in a welcoming and safe space. Vacationers in search of sustainable travel can now make informed decisions that they can feel good about with an eco- friendly spotlight for resorts certified for their green policies and support of local communities.
For those looking to set sail again, the tour operator continues to offer more options to cruise lovers with hundreds of cruises in the lineup. And, with more than 96 Play Collection resorts and 20 Play hotels in the USA, tailoring vacations to all travel styles and budgets is a breeze.
