Aeroplan stopovers now bookable online on Air Canada's website


A very popular redemption option for the Aeroplan program just became easier to book. The stopover option, where you can pay 5,000 points to stopover in an extra city on an itinerary outside of Canada and the U.S., has only been bookable by calling into Aeroplan but as of today Air Canada has launched a beta test for the stopover option for online bookings.

Credit Card Review: TD® Aeroplan® Visa Infinite* Card


One of the most popular travel rewards credit cards in Canada, the TD® Aeroplan® Visa Infinite* Card was first reviewed by Rewards Canada in 2014 when it was introduced. For the better part of six years the card didn't change very much but then we saw the entire Air Canada Aeroplan saga transpire for numerous years which culminated in Air Canada buying Aeroplan back from Aimia and launching a whole new Aeroplan in November of 2020 along with refreshed credit card offerings. This mainstay Aeroplan card from TD underwent many changes for the new program and thus the need for this updated review.

You can now earn and redeem Aeroplan points for flights on Mexico's Aeromar

Aeromar is Aeroplan's latest partner

As of today Air Canada Aeroplan members are able to earn and redeem Aeroplan points on Mexico's Aeromar. I believe this is to be the 11th new airline Aeroplan has added to their partner roster since June of 2020 (I've kind of lost count now) and 48th airline partner overall. Aeromar is one of Mexico's largest regional airlines serving over 20 cities in Mexico, Texas and Cuba.

Limited time offer: Earn up to 3 Aeroplan Points per dollar spent on Air Canada Gift Cards


Air Canada has brought back a limited time offer where you can earn extra Aeroplan points for buying Air Canada gift cards. The offer is available until June 19th and will award 1 point/$ spent on gift cards up to $750 and 3 points/$ if you spend over $750. Do note these don't code as Air Canada purchases on your credit card as they are processed by Buyatab so you won't earn extra points on the Aeroplan suite of co-brand credit cards or any credit card that has a travel accelerator.

Another Ultimate Portfolio update to let you know about - this time we updated The Ultimate "I have no idea what travel rewards I want" Credit Card portfolio! This is for those people who don't have set reward goals but know they want to be earning points and miles to use towards travel at sometime in the future. This portfolio is actually more than that - it is one of the top portfolios even the most seasoned points and miles enthusiasts would consider because it consists of only hybrid rewards cards and those are the best type of cards out there! This was another substantial update as 2 of the 3 cards were switched from when we made this portfolio in 2017! The recommended American Express Card is now the American Express Cobalt Card instead of the Gold Rewards Card and the Mastercard is now the HSBC World Elite Mastercard. Both of these cards did not exist when this portfolio was first published so it was due for a major overhaul.. Plus the feature hasbeen updated to the new Rewards Canada template. Check out the updated portfolio here!

Earn Triple Aeroplan Points on Uber rides until May 20

 
Right now Aeroplan members who have linked their Aeroplan accounts to their Uber accounts can earn triple points on rides until May 20. I received the offer via an Aeroplan email over the weekend however I cannot find any offer details on the Aeroplan site which made me think at first it was a targeted offer however the terms and conditions in the email seem to imply this is open to all members. There is also no registration required so I would assume all members who do have their accounts linked will earn the triple points.

One area that many loyalty programs don't do very well in is letting their members know when a partnership of theirs is ending. Such was the case here as we had no idea of this news until Randy S. told us on our Facebook page that Home Hardware is no longer a partner where you can earn Air Canada Aeroplan points. According to Home Hardware's site this partnership just ended on March 31, 2022. Click here to learn more.
