It Pays!
Earn faster... redeem on more!
Applicable to all of Thomas Cook’s tour operator and consolidator brands, this new program will allow you to earn points that you
can redeem for travel, merchandise and gift cards, easier and faster than ever before!
Now instead of earning points for each individual brand,
whenever you sell any product from any of our brands, it
will go into one grand total, allowing you to accumulate
even more points in less time!
You also have more choice when it comes to how you
redeem your new points:
YOUR GUIDE TO THOMAS COOK
• You can cash them in for a Thomas Cook card (no
activation fee and accepted any where Visa is accepted);
• You can redeem your points for a gift card from Visa,
American Express, Esso or Cara Foods (who own Harvey’s,
Milestones, Swiss Chalet and more) that you can give to
someone else;
• You can redeem for travel, where you can take advantage
of increased point values to get even more bang for your
hard-earned buck!

Introducing ThomasCookAgent.ca!
As we continue to look for ways to make your working life that much easier, Thomas Cook Canada is proud to introduce our brand
new, all-in-one agent site… the only agent site you’ll ever need to visit!
Doing away with our multiple agent sites with the many different sign-ins and passwords, we have created one site that does it all,
with just one username and password you need to remember to access the worlds of Sunquest, ALBATours, Holiday House, Fun Sun
Vacations, Intair Vacations, Intair, Network, Encore CruiseEscapes, Exotik Tours and Boomerang Tours. Even if you move agencies,
your sign-in information for this site remains the same!
When you get to the homepage,
simply select the brand you want
to go to from the dropbox at the top.
This will take you to the individual brand's agent
site, for example Encore CruiseEscapes, where you
can see the latest deals, downloaded the latest
brochures and more!
Having all these brands on one site also allows you to quickly and easily compare pricing between the brands, making sure you get
the very best price every time. You’ll also be able to check your points balance and redeem for travel, merchandise or gift cards.
Just go online to www.thomascookagent.ca to set up your profile and then our world is yours to discover!

Post-travel coordinators are responsible for assessing incoming

reviewed and investigated, and a written response forwarded to
the clients. If a travel agent writes on behalf of their client, then
the response is sent to the travel agency. If a client writes directly
to us, then the response is sent to the client directly.
Claims are responded to on a first come first serve basis. Our goal
is to have all claims investigated and responded to within 30
business days from the date that the claim was received in our
office. However, some claims may require additional investigation
with our suppliers and response times may be longer during the
peak winter season from February through May.

COMMON Q & A
When can I expect cruise documents?
Three weeks prior to sailing, an e-mail containing an attached edocument will be sent to the e-mail address on your booking. The
e-mail will be sent from cruiseoperations@thomascookgroup.ca,
please ensure you save this address in your contact list to prevent
the e-document from going into your junk or spam box.
The e-mail that will be sent to you will contain the electronic cruise
documents as well as any other product booked through the cruise
line or Encore CruiseEscapes/Intair/Fun Sun Vacations.
Luggage Tags will only be available at the pier.
If you do not receive an e-mail from Operations
please contact us at cruiseoperations@thomascookgroup.ca.
E-Documents are available for the following cruise lines: Royal
Caribbean International, Azamara Cruises, Celebrity Cruises, Carnival
Cruise Line*, MSC Cruises, Costa Cruise Lines, Holland America
Line and Norwegian Cruise Line (*Carnival Cruise Line documents
may be retrieved by visiting www.carnival.com/mydocuments).
Paper documents are available for the following cruise lines and will
be distributed 3 weeks prior to sailing: Disney Cruise Line, Paul
Gauguin, Regent Seven Seas.
Why should I book Encore CruiseEscapes air versus cruiseline air?
When Encore CruiseEscapes air is booked, flight details are available
at time of booking. We can also pre-book seats at time of booking.
When cruise line air is booked, flight details are only available 60
days prior to sailing and you will have to contact the airline to
pre-book seats.
PRICE MATCH POLICY
Forms are available on request, replies within 24 hours.
