Just remember, the $1,000 is key - as the offer states you will earn 5 Aeroplan Miles per dollar up to that $1,000 mark each month - anything above that and you'll earn the regular 1 to 1.5 Aeroplan Miles. So don't go out and blow $3,000 in the first month thinking you'll get 15,000 miles right away. Play it cool and make sure you can hit the $1,000 each month for those first three months.
I would also recommend that if you play the credit card sign up bonus game or are a credit card churner - you may want to take a break from other cards when you get this card. The reason why is so you can focus your spend to reach that $1,000 spend per month without stretching your finances to meet the minimum spend requirements on other cards at the same time. We've heard too many stories of people scrambling because they signed up for and received too many cards in a short period of time and struggled to hit the minimums to earn the welcome bonuses.
That aside - once you do have this card and have earned the 30,000 Aeroplan miles at no expense you have a lot of travel reward value at your disposal. Looking at the Aeroplan Classic Flight reward chart there are lots of round trip options that run from 15,000 to 30,000 miles and even more one way options since they are exactly half of the rates listed on the chart:
Here are some of the possible redemption options for the 35,000 mile level:
- 2 Round Trip Economy Class Short Haul tickets
- 1 Round Trip Business Class Short Haul ticket
- 1 Round Trip Economy Class Long Haul ticket in Canada and the U.S. (with 5,000 miles left over)
- 1 One Way Economy Class Ticket to South America or Europe
The value you get out of the sign up bonus will really vary based on
what you redeem your miles on. In many of our past posts we see Aeroplan miles being worth as little as 1.2 cents for economy class flights to well over 6 cents per mile for business class flights. That means the 30,000 mile welcome bonus is worth anywhere from $360 to $1,800+ which makes it one of the most worthwhile sign up offers in the market seeing that it basically comes to you at no cost since the first year annual fee is waived.
If you are wondering if this offer is right for you, you do have some
time to consider it as it is open for new applications until March 2, 2020.
