Collette has launched a new booking incentive for trade partners, offering a $1,500 bonus commission on eligible 2026 group tour bookings made between 1 April and 31 May 2025.
The offer applies to new group bookings with 15 or more paying travellers, travelling between 1 January and 31 December 2026. It’s part of a broader push by Collette to support travel advisors in building and growing their group business.
Strong trade support and added value
Head of Sales David Farrar said Collette is making it easier than ever for agents to book group travel.
“Booking group tours is easier than you think,” said Farrar. “At Collette, we provide the support our trade partners need to make this happen. We offer dedicated BDMs, a group specialist, marketing resources and zero upfront deposit to reduce the risk for agents.”
Collette is also offering guaranteed rates on land and air before deposits are due, along with access to more than 170 tours globally, including 50 small group Explorations tours. Agents can also upsell with optional excursions and tour extensions, such as a sunset cruise on the Zambezi River or pre- and post-night hotel stays in Ireland.
