June 15 Update: Credit cards that help you avoid those dreaded airline fees and Aeroplan providing some elites with status boosts next year

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 which is currently offering a welcome bonus of up to 70,000 bonus points and no annual fee in the first year! 


With travel slowly making a rebound and returning to many Canadian's radars to happen in the next 3-12 months you are going to have to start thinking about those dreaded airline fees again! With that we have updated our feature on Credit cards that help you avoid those dreaded airline fees. In this piece we look at cards that save you those baggage fees, seat selection fees and other fees that just seem to add up all the time. Check it out here.

Rewards Canada contributor Bill W. sent over an email he received from Aeroplan that gives him a little boost for qualifying for status beyond 2022:

In light of the impact of COVID‑19 on your travel plans, a few weeks ago we announced that your 2021 Elite Status will be automatically extended through the end of 2022. 

This announcement came after you had already selected the Lower Requalification Level benefit to help you requalify for Elite Status more easily. Now that your status is already secure for 2022, this choice wouldn’t give you the same value you had expected when you selected it. 

In acknowledgement of this, early next year, you’ll receive a one‑time deposit of 

• 5,000 Status Qualifying Miles and
• 5 Status Qualifying Segments
