So let’s Get Started? • First you need to log on to the www.aircanadavacations.com website. • There are two types of Log-ons. • The Administrator or “Parent” Log-on. • The Agent or “Child” Log-on.

The Administrator or Parent Log-on. The Administrator profile is the main gatekeeper for the agency. Here you can update your agency address, and create, disable, or delete individual agent users. Of course you have all the functionality of the agent profile such as making, retrieving or canceling bookings, final payments, room requests and much more.

The Administrator or Parent Log-on. • From this log-on you can decide how your agency will collect miles. • We have created 3 easy options for you: • Each agent may collect Aeroplan Miles on any Aeroplan number that they wish. • All Miles collected from each booking go towards a single Aeroplan number • entered in this profile. • Neither the Agency nor it's agents will collect Aeroplan Miles. • Later in this session we will show you how to choose these options.

The Agent or Child Log-on. Each agent should have a unique log-on to our website. These are called Agent or “child” log-ons because they fall under the Administrator or “Parent” log-on of the agency. Each booking made under the child log-on is attached to the parent agency. E-docs and invoices will still go to the registered e-doc e-mail address for the agency, and all accounting activity wll go to the IATA or TIDS of the parent Agency, but you will have easier access to your own bookings. All of your information is stored in your uniquely created profile and accessed through your child log-on..

Administrators: Let’s get started. If you are not the Administrator go here. First you need to log on. Hint: You can get more information on profiles in our “Profiles” training module. Your log-on is: Username: Your agency’s e-document delivery e-mail address Password: The password that you selected.

ACV&Me Settings By default each Agency profile has Status set to “activated”. This means that your agency may collect Aeroplan Miles for bookings.
