Winter 2026-27 is shaping up to be one of the best and most extensive for Air Canada Vacations (ACV). This year marks the return of the popular Winter Early Booking Bonus, along with an expanded Air Canada winter schedule with new nonstop routes and increased frequency to some of the hottest destinations.
"Winter remains a top travel season for Canadians, and for 2026/27 we're focused on offering even more flexibility, access, and value," said Nino Montagnese, Vice President of Air Canada Vacations. "By expanding our sun network and bringing back our Early Booking Bonus, we're helping travellers lock in their plans early and enjoy a worry-free getaway."
The winter sun network operates from nine gateways across the country: Toronto, Montréal, Ottawa, Québec City, Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, Winnipeg and Halifax.
To sweeten the pot, Air Canada Vacations is once again offering its popular Early Booking Bonus. Travelling Canadians can enjoy $1,000 off per family of four or $250 off per person on select vacation packages to Mexico, the Caribbean, Central America and Cartagena, as well as on select Flight & Hotel packages to Hawaii. This offer also applies to qualifying group bookings. In addition, travellers can save $250 off per pair on the flight portion of select Flight & Cruise packages to Mexico, the Caribbean and Hawaii. The Early Booking Bonus applies to new bookings made between April 13 and June 28, 2026, for departures between November 1, 2026 and April 30, 2027.
ACV also reminds advisors about the added flexibility of the CareFree travel protection plan, or the peace of mind and ability to cancel for a refund that comes with CareFlex and CareFlex Plus, the exclusive benefits of the Vacation Promise, including a 1st checked bag and carryon, and convenient nationwide connections starting at just $49.
Cruise travellers can benefit with the Cruise Promise, which includes a $50 deposit, refundable flights, and guaranteed flight protection.
Combined with 20% commission opportunities for travel professionals on protection plans and a new bonus commission incentive, there's never been a better time to book with Air Canada Vacations than now.
