According to Maureen Barnes-Smith, Vice President, Sales & Marketing, Unique Vacations Canada, “Simply put, Sandals and Beaches clients are ACV clients and vice versa. Canadian travel advisors know that it’s a win-win for their clients who want a quality product and exceptional service when they book a Sandals or Beaches package with Air Canada Vacations. After all, they’re placing their trust in not one, but two strong brands.”
