Marriott Bonvoy has added two new airline partners that you can convert points to. You can now convert points to Aer Lingus Aer Club and Vueling Club. Aer Lingus is of more importance to the Canadian market as Vueling is a Spanish low cost carrier flying intra-Europe flights. This brings the total number of airline programs for the Marriott Bonvoy program to 45. We have updated our Complete list of Airline & Hotel loyalty programs that you can earn miles or points in with Canadian Credit Cards to reflect this update. (Source Loyalty Lobby)
