ACV launches “Kickoff to Takeoff” contest for travel advisors

Air Canada Vacations has launched “Kickoff to Takeoff,” a new contest for travel advisors across Canada tied to this summer’s global football tournament.

The contest gives eligible travel advisors the chance to earn entries by booking air-inclusive vacation packages to select countries participating in the tournament between June 11 and July 19, 2026.

Advisors can earn one entry for each eligible booking. 

They can also earn bonus entries if one of the countries they booked advances through the finals during the contest period.

“Travel advisors are at the heart of everything we do,” said Erminia Gallina, director, sales at Air Canada Vacations. 

“With ‘Kickoff to Takeoff,’ we wanted to create a fun, engaging, and rewarding experience that celebrates our valued partners while capturing the energy and passion of a global event that inspires travel around the world.”

Participants will have the chance to win one of three prizes: a $2,000 Air Canada Vacations Future Travel Credit, a $1,000 Air Canada Vacations Future Travel Credit or $500 in ACV&ME points.

To enter, advisors must book a flight-inclusive package with Air Canada Vacations to one of the eligible destinations by signing in as a travel agent and booking on aircanadavacations.com or through the GDS booking system. 

Each eligible booking must then be registered through the contest link.

Eligible destinations include Canada, the United States, Mexico, Curaçao, Brazil, Switzerland, Scotland, Australia, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Argentina, Algeria, Austria, Portugal, England, Croatia, New Zealand, Czechia, Sweden, Spain, Morocco, Japan and South Korea.
