Whether you are planning your next trip, sharing ETA Compass with people you know, or building a career of your own in travel, there is a place for you here. Choose the path that fits you.
Benefits for the people we plan trips for
Join at no cost and receive a $50 CAD credit toward your first cruise, land tour or vacation package with ETA Compass. No purchase is required to become a member.
Each credit carries its own redemption code and applies to one itinerary. Your advisor applies it for you when you book.
A seasonal membership for travelers who book with us often. For $25 CAD per month, VIP members receive a complimentary port, airport or ferry transfer with every cruise, land tour or package booked through ETA Compass.
ETA VIP is not currently open to new members. Join the waitlist and we will contact you as soon as the next enrollment window opens.
Your journey should feel seamless from the first mile to the last. Tell us how you like to ride, with the music you enjoy, the cabin temperature, a quiet cabin and a smooth, unhurried drive, and we introduce you to Coastal Rides, our transportation partner. They confirm the fare with you and look after the ride, so you arrive rested and ready.
ETA Compass refers you to Coastal Rides and is not the transportation operator. ETA Compass may receive a referral fee from Coastal Rides. Your preferences are requests, and Coastal Rides will tell you what it can provide.
Planning a trip? Book a free consultation with a licensed BC travel advisor and start planning your journey. Your advisor can also apply your membership credit when you book.
Open to anyone who knows someone who loves to travel
Sign up free and your $50 welcome credit is waiting in your account. Then share ETA Compass with friends and family. When a friend you introduced books and the booking is confirmed, you receive a $50 travel credit. Your own later trips can also earn credit toward the trips that follow.
Please tell your advisor who referred you when you book, so the credit reaches the right account. A credit is issued after the booking is confirmed, not when a friend only signs up.
Build a career in travel, then build a business
Turn your passion for travel into a professional career. ETA Compass advisors earn commission on every trip they book, and as your book of business grows, your rate grows with you, up to 80% of commission for top performers.
Rate increases are performance-based and set by ETA Compass as your production grows. Our onboarding team will walk you through exactly how it works.
For advisors who want to build something of their own. Operate your own travel business under the ETA Compass umbrella, with our supplier relationships, technology and licensing behind your brand and your clients, and the ownership and long-term upside of building a business rather than only a book of clients.
This is a conversation, not an application form. Reach out and we will walk through what it could look like for you.
Hold a Class 4 driver's licence? Put it to work. Advisors with a Class 4 licence can personally provide airport, cruise-port and ferry transfers to their own clients and keep the fare, in addition to their usual commission. A broader driver network, for advisors who prefer to arrange the ride rather than drive it, is coming soon.
Already an advisor with a Class 4 licence? Please speak with the accounting team about recording your transfer income.
Already a licensed travel advisor? Join ETA Market to receive ready-made cruise and tour offers and warm, pre-qualified leads, with the supplier details and a call checklist prepared for you.
Applications are reviewed by ETA Compass. A valid travel licence or registration is required.
Run an outsourced or host-agency travel business? List your agency on ETA Market, bring your advisors with you, and let travellers find your offers and your team in one place.
Agency partnerships are reviewed individually, and terms are agreed in writing before anything goes live.
Separate from ETA Compass
For those who see travel as more than a trip, and as a lifestyle worth building an income around. We can introduce you to an independent travel-membership opportunity built around exactly that: earning through travel itself, on a schedule that is entirely your own. It is not part of ETA Compass and is not administered by us. It is simply a resource we are glad to point you toward if it interests you.
This is an independent business opportunity, unaffiliated with and not guaranteed or operated by ETA Compass. As with any income opportunity, results vary and are not guaranteed.
