RBC has a new acquisition offer for their flagship card the RBC Visa Infinite Avion card. Once again you can get 20,000 points and have the first year free but you'll have to put some spend on the card to get the full bonus. When approved you'll get 15,000 points then when you spend $1,000 on the card in the first three months you'll be awarded with 5,000 more points for 20,000 total - and the first year annual fee is waived. This means you are basically getting the 20,000 points for free. This is a great deal assuming the $1,000 in spending you put on the card is spending you would do otherwise. This is an easily achievable spend requirement only only $333.33 per month so it is definitely an offer you'll want to check out.
Those 20,000 points will equate to 20,000 British Airways Avios at no cost or more when they run their transfer bonuses like the current 50% bonus. It is also equivalent to 200 WestJet dollars at no cost and that doesn't even take into account the transfer bonuses they run occasionally throughout the year for WestJet. And remember BA has household accounts so you and your spouse could each get the card then convert to BA and combine the Avios into one account for no less than 40,000 Avios. Remember that you can get really cheap Avios redemptions to Dublin from Toronto and Montreal on Aer Lingus. There are just so many options here....
