How do I get a FREE FAM? Free FAM! Book 15 or more passengers on the same air-inclusive tour of equal

What is a Familiarization tour (FAM)? It’s been proven that you have greater success selling a tour when you
have actually been to the destination. A Collette FAM gives you the opportunity to experience both the destination and the service provided by Collette.
Why travel on a FAM trip?•New to Collette? Our FAMs showcase how we operate as a
company, the quality of our product, and our commitment to service.
•FAMs provide travel agents with a taste of the destination – information that you can bring back home to your clients and groups.
•FAMs allow you to network with other travel professionals.
What’s included? Land only unless otherwise specified; ask about our air add-on from
your airport. Most meals are included. The number of meals will be on your final documents, which are sent approximately two weeks prior to departure.
Who qualifies to travel on a FAM? FAMs are limited to travel agents with active IATA cards.
How and when will I be notified if I am accepted on a FAM? You will be notified by email that your application was received. Then,
within 60 days of receipt of the application, you will be notified if you have been confirmed.
When is payment due? The $250 deposit plus Travel Protection Plan fee (optional) is due upon
confirmation and booking. The final payment is due 120 days prior to departure.
How do I apply for a Collette FAM? Apply online at www.gocollette.com/agentfam, or fax your application to 401.725.7659.
when you go, you knowbecause
We know because we go. The Collette team lives by that
philosophy. Collette employees
have the opportunity to visit the
most wonderful spots around the
globe. Whether it’s holding our
annual sales meeting in New
Zealand or travelling to Beijing to
create the next great group travel
experience, it’s the only way to truly
be a destination expert.
Live it. Learn it. Promote it. Really, it’s that simple. We’ve
found that personal stories far outweigh even the most spectacular travel brochures when you are trying to communicate the highlights of a destination. After a FAM, you can feel confident promoting our tours.
The Advantage of Being There

Educational tours are created to explore the destination, and are often conducted in seasons where availability is abundant. Promotional rate tickets may be utilized for the Familiarization tour to keep the costs affordable for the participant, and therefore are subject to airline conditions of contract. In the rare instance that the scheduled flight is overbooked, the airline reserves the right to restrict the usage of the promotional ticket on the flight. The participant will be rebooked on the next available flight on the same carrier, without any other form of compensation. In turn, Collette will work with the airline and assist with any other accommodations that may be necessary to continue the educational tour.
Collette’s Travel Protection PlanCollette’s Travel Protection Plan is available for an additional fee and will cover you in the event of illness, accidents, or travel and baggage delay. Payment of a per person Travel Protection Plan fee guarantees a full refund of all payments (including deposit) except for the Travel Protection Plan fee itself, in case of cancellation of travel plans for any reason prior to the day of departure. If Collette’s Travel Protection Plan is not purchased, cancellation penalties may apply, when cancellation occurs within 120 days. Travel Protection Plan ranges from $140 - $400, based on tour.
