Aeroplan members can now book Canadian North reward flights online on the Aeroplan website. Prior to this you had to call in to book reward flights and pay the phone in booking fee. This is nice little update to the program in your ability to search and book these famous flights online. They are famous as they tend to be very expensive and some of the routes like Edmonton to anywhere in the Northwest Territories price out as Short Haul flights within the Aeroplan program which means you are redeeming as little as 7,500 miles one way.

Here is the current Canadian North route map:
