Collette announces new Travel Advisor Reward Program

Pawtucket, RI (September 14, 2023) – Collette announces the launch of its new Travel Advisor Reward Program. North America’s longest-running tour operator wants its advisors to be able to get out and explore the world in the same way that their travelers do.

With the new program, advisors will be rewarded for booking more travelers on Collette tours.

Starting with reduced rates of 50%, advisors will receive bigger savings on land tours the more travelers they book within a single year.

They’ll have the opportunity to increase that number all the way to 100% if they book over 40 travelers. Advisors will also receive reduced rates for companions, starting at 25%.

"Our advisors are such a big part of what we do each and every day," said Jaclyn Leibl-Cote, president and chief customer experience officer at Collette. "We want to give them the opportunity to get out and explore the world, just like their travelers do. By offering this reward program, we not only allow them to do that, but also encourage them to share the gift of travel with more travelers."
