MONTREAL — Air Canada Vacations’ new Group Quoting Tool, designed to enhance efficiency and save time, gives travel advisors the capability to create and manage their group quotes.

The new tool was successfully soft launched last week.

“Our priority remains giving our partner the support that they need. Today marks an exciting milestone as we unveil this new tool, empowering them to elevate the service they provide to our shared customers,” said ACV’s VP, Nino Montagnese.

The new tool introduces features such as real-time instant quotes for most sun destinations and hotels.

Agents can create up to 3 itineraries, up to 3 room categories for one hotel, complete with a direct link to hotel content for comprehensive resort information. In addition, the tool equips agents with self-serve options to easily manage their quotes and monitor quote status.

Agents can access a consolidated view of current and past quotes, generate client-friendly PDF versions with personalized information, agency logos and price adjustments.

The Group Quoting Tool also streamlines the booking process by allowing agents to request bookings directly from the quote. Additional functionalities include setting up reminders for organized workflow, simple application of payments and access to a user-friendly passenger list.
