Funway to sell Air Canada Vacations in UK
Funway Holidays has reached a sales and marketing agreement with Air Canada Vacations to sell their product through travel agents in the UK.
Packages and land-only options for this year and next are available to book through Funway’s reservations team, who have been trained in the build-up to the launch.
A dedicated telephone number is available for travel agents to call and online booking through funway4agents.co.uk is planned for later this year.
The launch will be backed by extensive sales and marketing activity, including consumer-focused campaigns jointly with selected travel agent and destination partners, the production of tactical offer brochures and a forthcoming full dedicated brochure available for all Funway Holidays’ travel agent partners.
Funway MD Melissa Tilling said: "We are delighted to be partnering with Air Canada Vacations, a natural progression for Funway Holidays as we further build on our North America specialist credentials.
"The teams at Air Canada Vacations in Montreal and Funway Holidays have been working very closely and I’m thrilled we can offer this fantastic product to our valued travel agents.
"Flying Air Canada and Air Canada Rouge from four airports around the UK to over 60 destinations throughout Canada, and myriad beyond points, offers incredible flexibility and choice to our customers".
Travel options include skiing in Banff, whale watching in Vancouver, epic train voyages across Canada, exploring Montreal and Toronto.
The 2018 & 2019 collection offers over 28 escorted, rail or fly-drive packaged plus flight and hotel packages from city breaks to complex flexible multi-destination holidays, combined with the USA, Mexico and the Caribbean.
