TravelBrands’ Encore Cruises Launches New Air-Booking System FlexAir

TravelBrands’ Encore Cruises Launches New Air-Booking System FlexAir

TravelBrands’ Encore Cruises has launched FlexAir, a new air-booking system that will allow advisors to hold flights with $0 due at time of booking.

The company says FlexAir is designed to help Canadian travel advisors close more cruise bookings by giving them more time time finalize their clients’ cruise plans without risking losing the pricepoint or momentum of the sale.

Key benefits include:

• $0 due at time of booking*

• Hold flights for up to 30 days prior to departure

• Protect today’s pricing

• Sell with confidence, not pressure

FlexAir is available on select major North American and international airlines including Air Canada, Air Transat, Porter, WestJet, United Airlines, TAP Air Portugal, LOT Polish Airlines, SAS, and ITA Airways.

TravelBrands Encore Cruises recently announced a new partnership with Celestyal, further expanding its European cruise portfolio.

Flights must be booked by calling the Encore Reservations team and must be made in conjunction with one of Encore’s cruise line partners. To learn more about FlexAir by Encore, including full terms and conditions, visit www.travelbrandsaccess.com.
