The Avalon Poetry II.

Air Canada Vacations has partnered with Avalon Waterways, expanding its growing cruise portfolio with a collection of river cruise experiences and an introductory bonus commission offer. 

ACV says the partnership will enable Canadian travellers to experience a wide selection of river journeys, backed by the convenience and trusted service it offers.

“The addition of Avalon Waterways to our cruise portfolio gives our customers another inspiring way to discover the world,” said ACV VP Nino Montagnese. 

“Avalon Waterways’ distinctive river cruise experiences complement our commitment to offering Canadian travellers more choice, memorable journeys and exceptional ways to explore each destination.”

With a fleet of 16 ships, Avalon Waterways offers travellers an intimate and engaging way to experience destinations. Its river cruises combine thoughtfully planned itineraries with opportunities for guests to discover local culture, history and scenery.

Exclusive Introductory Offer: Until October 4, book an Avalon Waterways vacation cruise package with Air Canada Vacations and earn $100 Bonus Commission. This offer applies to new individual bookings made between September 9, to October 4, 2026, for select sailings between Sept 9, 2026 to December 31, 2027.

ACV’s Cruise Promise: When booking a cruise with Air Canada Vacations, customers enjoy exclusive features like a $50 deposit per person on select cruise lines. Plus, if your clients’ ship is delayed or departure is missed due to a flight issue, ACV will ensure they’re rebooked on the next available flight to catch up. All flights are refundable, with no deposit required, and the lowest airfare is guaranteed or ACV will cover the cost of the flight. Click here for more details.
