December 4 Update: New from RBC - The Avion Collection, Discounted More Rewards redemption offer for Save-On Foods & Aeroplan accumulation changes for Canadian North

 Here's your Rewards Canada Daily update! Your daily dose (or near daily dose) of loyalty program, credit card and travel news, bonuses, deals and more. This update is brought to you by the HSBC World Elite Mastercard.


RBC
has launched a new initiative for their Avion cardholders. Entitled 'The Avion Collection' RBC describes the Avion Collection as

"Bringing you curated travel ideas, exclusive value, insider tips, and unique experiences that will only get better over time. This is the start of an ever-growing catalog of value and inspiration, just for Avioners"
 
They have also introduced a Podcast as part of the collection which is hosted by former Olympian and Amazing Race Canada host Jon Montgomery. The first episode is planned for December 14.  As we don't have an Avion card in the Rewards Canada family at the moment I would love to hear from a reader or readers of ours who do to see what may be in-store when you log in to the Avion Collection site in terms of offers, value and unique experiences. From the landing page prior to logging in they only note the The Avion Collection Ski Experience which provides discounts at five ski areas across Canada. If there is more inside when you log in please let us know!  Learn more about The Avion Collection here
