Collette announces the launch of the revamped Passport Club loyalty program. The program rewards travellers and allows them to unlock more perks with every adventure.
The Passport Club is an upgrade to Collette’s previous loyalty program, which provided travelers with a flat rate credit within 1-2 years of their initial tour.
With the enhanced Passport Club, travelers are automatically enrolled into the program as Level 1: Adventurer. They can then tap into the following perks after completing their first and second tours with Collette:
· Travelers receive a 5% Loyalty Credit* on their next Collette tour when it’s completed within 24 months of their most recent departure date.
· Travelers receive a 3% Loyalty Credit* on tours completed within 25-36 months of their original trip.
· Loyalty Credit expires 36 months after their most recent departure date.
Once they’ve completed their third tour and all subsequent tours, they’ll move into Level 2: Explorer, a tier of the loyalty program that features all of the perks of Level 1 plus an additional benefit:
· $100 of credit towards purchasing optional tour components or upgrades when travel is completed within 36 months of the most recent trip departure date. The credit expires three years after the original trip.
"We want to reward our travelers for exploring the world with us,” said Jaclyn Leibl-Cote, CEO at Collette. "With our dynamic program, the more they travel, the more they’ll receive. Plus, the bigger the trip, the bigger the credit. This year, we’ve worked to extend the benefits of the Passport Club. Travelers’ loyalty credit now lasts longer and they’ll also accumulate credit for pre and post tour accommodations. We are grateful to our family of travelers and want to reward them for every adventure they take with us."

Passport Club Loyalty credits are earned after tour completion and can be applied to bookings on future trips to be taken.

Passport Club Level 2: Explorer additional $100 credit is valid on new bookings for past guests who have previously traveled with Collette three or more times and are booking their fourth or more trip.
New Loyalty credits will be generated for all returning travelers after their return date. The new credits will start with the September 1, 2024, tour departure dates and can be applied to future bookings in addition to non-expired loyalty credits that were generated under the original loyalty program.
The expiration dates for existing 5% and 3% loyalty credits generated since September 1, 2023, will be updated to reflect the new policy: 5% credits will be valid for 24 months from the original trip date, and 3% credits will be valid for 25-36 months from the original trip date.
