TORONTO — Sunwing has launched its latest sale – ‘See You At RIU’ – ahead of its resumption of flights on Nov. 6.

From now until Oct. 14, clients can save up to 50% off their getaway to RIU Hotels & Resorts for departures throughout the fall and winter. Plus, each time an agent makes a booking at RIU Hotels & Resorts for departures between Nov. 6, 2020 and April 30, 2021, they’ll receive 5X the STAR Agent Reward Points that convert to cash, and 5X the RIU Partner Club points.

“In these uncertain times we are finding that more customers are choosing to return to destinations and resorts that they know and love,” said Deana Murphy, VP Retail Sales for Sunwing. “RIU Hotels & Resorts have been along-time favourite resort chain for Canadians. With their world-class service and convenient amenities across some of the most popular destinations, agents will want to make sure they provide details about this great sale to their RIU clients while deals last.”

Murphy also noted that clients can enjoy added benefits with Sunwing’s exclusive partnership with RIU, featuring select inclusions and amenities.

Plus, in addition to savings and RIU perks, clients who book an applicable package during the sale will receive COVID-19 Coverage at no additional cost. Launched last month, the coverage is included in all vacation packages as part of the Safe with Sunwing commitment, and is designed to cover emergency medical and quarantine costs in the event they contract the virus while on vacation.

As part of the ‘See You At RIU’ sale, clients can book the Riu Palace Bavaro in Punta Cana with savings of up to 50% off and Kids Stay FREE deals. This top-rated luxury resort offers unlimited access to the ‘Splash Water World’ water park within the RIU Punta Cana complex, plus exclusive RIU-topia and RIU Palace inclusions like 24-hour room service, free Wi-Fi and poolside wait service.

In Jamaica, the newly-renovated Riu Ocho Rios is also included in the sale. The resort, which was recently refurbished, offers rooms that sleep five or more, a new ‘Splash Water World’ water park and additional dining options such as the beachside Jerk Chicken Station.

To provide clients with added peace of mind at this time, Sunwing’s flexible booking options allow them to change or cancel their plans anytime with ease. Plus, they can enjoy flexible payment options and receive up to $800 per couple with complimentary Price Drop Cash Back.

Sunwing will resume flights on Nov. 6 with departures to Mexico, Jamaica, the Dominican Republic and Costa Rica from both Toronto and Montreal. Destinations include Punta Cana, Cancun, Montego Bay and Liberia.
