MONTREAL — Air Canada Vacations is launching its largest Sun brochure ever this week.
With more than 475 resorts, Air Canada Vacations says it offers more destinations than any other Canadian tour operator in Mexico and the Caribbean.
Air Canada Vacations works with two airline partners, Air Canada and Air Canada rouge, Air Canada’s new leisure carrier, to offer more nonstop flights than the competition and provide connecting flights from 66 Canadian cities.
“As the dedicated leisure carrier on select routes in Mexico and the Caribbean, Air Canada rouge brings a friendly, upbeat spirit,” said Eamonn Ferrin, President and Chief Operating Officer of Air Canada Vacations. “The rouge crew (flight attendants) are trained in customer service excellence by the Disney Institute to create a relaxed, comfortable onboard atmosphere so that our customers can start their vacations the moment they step onboard the flight.”
The new Sun Collection introduces vacation types:
• Family vacation: All of the family resorts feature dedicated kids’ pools and supervised kids’ clubs, as well as great discounts for children like free stays and meals.
• Luxury vacation: All of these deluxe resorts offer only the very best standards of comfort and service with stylishly elegant décor in the most beautiful tropical surroundings, and gourmet meals from some of the world’s finest chefs.
• Adults-only vacation: These resorts offer an outstanding selection of facilities and activities designed for the adult traveller, from a quiet couple’s trip to fun with friends at a late night club.
• Spa vacation: These resorts embrace the peaceful beauty of their surroundings and offer daily outdoor activities, onsite fitness facilities and comprehensive onsite spas.
