May 24 Update: Aeroplan Transfer Miles discount, new Alaska Airlines Mileage Plan partners, Shangri-La Toronto deal

News, Tips & Tricks
Aeroplan
is once again running a discounted offer for transferring miles between accounts. Normally it costs 2 cents per mile to transfer to another account but until June 4th you can do so at 1.5 cents per miles. Still not the best deal but if you have some stagnant miles that can help another account reach an award level it may be worth it to do so. Find out more here.

Alaska Airlines Mileage Plan
has followed in the footsteps of Air Canada Altitude and British Airways Executive Club by offering Mileage Plan elite status members an option to extend status if you stop travelling for pregnancy or parental leave. Find out more here.

And if that wasn't the only good new from Alaska Airlines they have announced more ways to earn and burn miles. The ability to redeem Mileage Plan miles is now available on Condor. We mentioned this partnership a few months ago but at time only earning was available but now you can also redeem for flights on Condor. This is pretty significant seeing that Condor does fly between Calgary, Whitehorse, Toronto, Vancouver, Halifax and Germany. Here is the award chart for using Mileage Plan miles on Condor from Canada to Europe:

They have also announced a new partnership with Finnair. Currently you will be able to earn Mileage Plan miles on Finnair flights (they do serve Toronto over the summer season) and eventually you'll be able to redeem on Finnair flights. For Finnair Plus members you can earn and already burn for flights on Alaska. (Source Alaska Airlines)

Scotiabank Platinum American Express - The sleeper card in the Canadian premium card market

One card that does not get too much attention on our site or many others is the Scotiabank Platinum American Express card. The card is a sleeper card. That is, there is little promotion of it, little talk of it but when you consider the benefits that come with it you can see why we call it a sleeper card.

We even reminded ourselves of the card, hence this post, when we released our Ultimate High End Credit Card portfolio a few weeks ago. We did consider the card but in reality the ultimate high end card is the Platinum Card from American Express so that card took the Amex slot for the portfolio. However you could give this card consideration if you don't need all the benefits and the heftier price tag from Amex's own offering.

This card isn't cheap as well but it is $300 less than The Platinum Card from American Express. At $399 the Scotiabank Platinum American Express Card falls into the realm of less than 10 cards in Canada that have annual fees over $150. That being said, this card fills a great niche for someone who may be a semi-frequent traveller that only travels maybe a half dozen times per year or so. Why is that? The card offers free Priority Pass membership, a US$99 value. Big deal you say, the BMO World Elite MasterCard and several Platinum Cards from American Express have this feature. However the Scotia Platinum American Express comes with 10 free lounge visits for the primary cardholder and 4 more for a supplementary cardholder. At US$27 a pop that's US$270 in savings for the primary cardholder. So really you have covered your annual fee with just the lounge access.

On top of that is the earning provided by the card. Just like its sibling, the Scotiabank Gold American Express Card, this card earn 4 points per dollar on eligible Gas, Grocery, and Dining/Entertainment spending. That's a 4% return that you can use towards any travel. Or you can use them for numerous other reward options included cash back via Scotia Rewards (see our post on the revamped Scotia Rewards program here)

You also get 30,000 bonus points on your first purchase with the card that's worth $300 towards travel. So let's add that up. $300 sign up bonus, US$99 Priority Pass membership and US$270 in lounge passes. That means in the first year you are getting close to $800 in value for the $399 annual fee. Each year after that you're annual essentially covers the lounge costs but then you have your rewards, insurance coverage and other benefits included. This card is actually a steal of deal.

Now do you see why consider this card the sleeper card? Not well known, but it really should be seeing how popular the Gold version of the card is.

Do you have this card? Are you considering it? Let us know below what you like about it!

Further thoughts, insight and tips on the split between Air Canada and Aeroplan


This is our second post covering the big news this month in the Canadian loyalty space of Air Canada launching their own program apart from Aeroplan. The first post covered the breaking news and touched upon some of our initial thoughts. Since then we have conducted over a dozen media interviews on the subject which has allowed us to delve even deeper into the subject and we wanted to give you a further update on this developing news story. What we can guarantee is that this won't be the last post covering the topic, in fact it will probably be front and center for the next three years!

Why did Air Canada do this? In our numerous interviews last week and this week we've put it out there that there are most likely several reasons why Air Canada has decided to launch its own program. Some but not all of those educated guesses are as follows:
  • It is well known that frequent flyer programs are big revenue generators. That's why Air Canada sold Aeroplan. They made a lot of money off of the sale to help them out when times were tough. Now, Air Canada only sees revenue by selling seats at a discount to Aeroplan. They don't see the very lucrative credit card and other partner revenues. By bringing the program back in house they have access to way more revenue and profits
  • The disconnect between Aeroplan and Air Canada saw some loyal Air Canada travellers jump ship to other airlines and other airline programs. I mean when you've been loyal and spent lots of money on an airline and then all of sudden you have to compete with millions of other members to get award seats because your frequent flyer program became a frequent shopping program? That does not make a happy customer especially one who has spent a lot of money flying your airline. By bringing the program back under their control it should mean more seat inventory for the loyal Air Canada traveller as those seats will be available to them first and then to programs like Aeroplan and AIR MILES. 
  • WestJet going full bore on premium classes. WestJet has already stated that they are putting a true business class on their new Boeing 787's and are exploring opening their own airport lounges. Air Canada will be in a fight for that high profit premium passenger and by having an in-house frequent flyer program they can utilize that program to try to keep attrition to WestJet at a minimum.
What about the current frequent flyer who is sitting on hundreds of thousands if not millions of Aeroplan miles? Won't they be mad at the lack of redemptions come 2020 even though they have been loyal to Air Canada and collected Aeroplan miles as part of being loyal? This is going to be tough and Air Canada may have to provide some sort of incentive package to their loyal elite flyers. I mean all of sudden they can't use those thousands of miles on Star Alliance partners? That's bad juju. Perhaps Air Canada will pad their loyal flyers account with some miles to begin with, or they may put in place some sort of transfer option although as we know from the news provided by both Aeroplan and Air Canada there will be no way to transfer between the two programs, at least for the time being.

What options do I have and what should I do now?
  • Stay put - at least for a little while and keep going on with Aeroplan as if nothing is happening. Keep earning those miles and keep redeeming them. The good news is you'll be able to use Aeroplan miles on Air Canada flights post-divorce. Bad news is we don't know what other airlines will be available to Aeroplan. As I mentioned in many of my interviews Aeroplan is most likely already negotiating with other airlines to bring them on board. It makes sense for those other airlines to do so. Will we see all the Star Alliance airlines with Aeroplan? No but there is a possibility of some of the larger airlines with lots of service to Canada like Lufthansa and United negotiating other contracts with Aeroplan. And why not. Aeroplan has access to over 5 million members and those airlines can utilize Aeroplan to fill empty seats and at least getting some sort of return from Aeroplan rather than letting a seat go unsold. Aeroplan knows these airlines well and these airlines know Aeroplan well. It makes sense for some of them to be part of Aeroplan. The relationship however will take on a role similar to AIR MILES who do have partnerships with several Star Alliance airlines like Air Canada, Lufthansa and Air New Zealand and access to seats will be limited but the option is there.
  • Use up your Aeroplan miles as soon as you can and start planning to use another reward program. We cover some of those in the next two points.
  • Hoard points in a program that may convert to the future Air Canada program - This is a speculative move but seeing that the new Air Canada program will be more of a true frequent flyer program it will have partnerships with other travel providers like hotels. You could switch to a hotel point earning credit card and try to funnel as many points to these programs. There are only three hotel credit cards in Canada from Marriott, Starwood and Best Western. Starwood has and is the best option for earning potential future miles for the future Air Canada program as their points typically transfer at a 1:1 rate to airlines. However the downside of this is Starwood Preferred Guest will no longer be around sometime in 2018 as their parent company Marriott will merge SPG into Marriott Rewards. The good news is that you will get 3 Marriott Rewards points (or whatever the new combined program may be called) for every Starpoint you have which makes conversion from Marriott to an airline more tolerable, especially if you take on one of their nights+flights packages.

    There is also high likelihood that American Express Membership Rewards will be a partner of the new Air Canada program. Again being speculative as there has been no announcement and it's too early in the development stages of Air Canada's program to say so. However Amex has a long standing relationship with Air Canada and Aeroplan so there is a good chance they would be a partner as well. Worst case scenario if you are collecting Membership Rewards points to eventually convert to the Air Canada program and that partnership never develops you have other options to use those Membership Rewards points, whether its Use Points for Purchases or converting to another airline like British Airways Executive Club
  • Move to a totally different program that isn't affected by moves like this. What we mean here is going to a proprietary credit card program which have discussed time and time again on Rewards Canada and in fact discuss Why proprietary credit card reward programs are the best option for most Canadians. Whether you are a frequent loyal Air Canada traveller or a frequent shopper utilizing Aeroplan you can look at a proprietary program like Scotia Rewards as your program for the next three years and beyond. Taking Scotia Rewards as an example, loyal Air Canada travellers could look at using the Scotiabank Gold American Express Card which offers a rich earn rate of four points per dollar spent on your everyday purchases at gas stations, grocery stores, restaurants and entertainment. Then when 2020 comes you can book Air Canada flights with the card and then redeem the points you have earned over the years for those flights (You can redeem for up to one year after you've paid for your travel). You’ll earn the new Air Canada loyalty program miles for the flights and elite status qualification since they are revenue tickets that you bought from Air Canada. All the while you are subsidizing the costs of the flight(s) with the Scotia Rewards points because you have the flexibility to book your travel through Scotia Rewards full service agency or any travel provider of your choice - you choose. This could be considered a stop-gap measure until the new program comes to place and launches an Air Canada credit card but we would recommend keeping the card since it can be used to pay for taxes and fees as well as any travel you may have outside of Air Canada (i.e. hotels, car rentals etc.)
We would love to hear everyone's continued thoughts on the subject! There were quite a few comments on the first post and we're guessing that now that we are week in most of you have had more time to digest this news and start developing a plan on what you are going to do. So what are you going to do? Are you going to follow some of the points we listed above? Is there something we didn't cover that you thought of? Let's keep the discussion going below!

New Alaska Airlines Mileage Plan and Groupon partnership! 500 miles for new customer purchases and 4 miles per dollar for existing customers


You now have one more shopping avenue for earning Alaska Airlines Mileage Plan miles and its a pretty big one: Groupon. When Groupon approached us last fall via email and then at a conference to discuss the topic of issuing miles for purchases we of course told them yes, yes you should! We discussed more than this of course but for our readers you really just care about being able to earn the miles. Now about 7 months later they have their first partner and it is one we all love, Alaska Airlines Mileage Plan! I know you'll say I've already been earning Mileage Plan miles with Groupon via Alaska Airlines Mileage Plan shopping (their online shopping portal) but now you can earn more with this direct partnership.

The earn rates are great with the direct partnership. New Groupon customers will receive 500 miles on their first eligible purchase of over $30 while existing customers will earn 4 miles/dollar on eligible Groupon purchases. That's right 4 miles per dollar! That is a really good earn rate, especially if buying a large ticket getaway! Compare this to 3 miles per dollar via the Mileage Plan online shopping mall and you can see why you want to go direct.

After signing into Groupon via the special Alaska Airlines Mileage Plan link you'll have to input your Mileage Plan number and once you have you'll be presented with the following:
I tested the promo code out on a local purchase, the promo code was applied properly and it even provided a discount (the discount is for a limited time only):


Overall this is great news as there are lots of you who use Groupon to save some money on local deals and even travel purchases and now you can earn more miles for doing so! Will you start earning Mileage Plan miles on your Groupon purchases?

May 17 Update: Latest TD Aeroplan offers, earn SkyMiles for Lyft Rides, AIR MILES bonus for online shopping

News, Tips & Tricks
TD Bank has released their latest offers for the TD Aeroplan Visa Infinite Card and TD Aeroplan Visa Infinite Privlege Card. The only change from the offers that ended yesterday on the Visa Infinite as the 50% off the first year annual fee is gone. The sign up offers remain at up to 30,000 miles for the Infinite and up to 55,000 miles for the Infinite Privilege. You can find more details on our TD credit card page.

Delta SkyMiles members can now earn SkyMiles when taking rides with Lyft! Similar to partnerships we have seen for Uber (IHG, SPG etc.), Lyft has now gotten into the loyatly game. The only difference with this new partnership is that is listed as exclusive so we will most likely not see other programs team up with Lyft, or at least airlines that is.
How It Works
Delta, Lyft team up to reward customers with first-of-its-kind partnership

It’s as simple as linking SkyMiles and Lyft accounts, and requesting a ride. All SkyMiles members are eligible. Customers who are not already enrolled in the SkyMiles program can sign up for free through the partner page or delta.com/enroll to become eligible. To download the Lyft app, visit lyft.com/app-sms.

SkyMiles member Lyft benefits offered exclusively at delta.com/lyft include:
  • One mile per dollar* spent on all rides, with unlimited mileage earning
  • Limited time launch bonus of two bonus miles for a total of three miles per $1* spent on Lyft ride(s) to or from any airport location
  • New rider $20 credit broken down into two $10 Lyft ride credits
  • All Lyft rides are all eligible to earn miles including Lyft Line, Classic, Plus and Premier
If you are planning any online shopping you may want to funnel it through Airmilesshops.ca. Right now you can earn 50 Bonus AIR MILES Reward Miles when you spend a total of $150 or more across one or more retailers. Simply make your purchases by May 31. Find out more here.


Mexican carrier InterJet is expanding beyond their flights in Mexico and the U.S. to add flights to Canada! The airline plans to launch 3x weekly service between Montreal and Cancun and Montreal and Mexico City this July. The airline does have their own frequent flyer program called Club InterJet that works like a cash back rewards program (think WestJet Rewards) Of course you can join Club InterJet while still utilizing proprietary card programs to earn points on InterJet purchases as well as redeeming points against those purchases.

Summary of global hotel systemwide bonus points promotions - earn lots of points while you sleep!



One of the easiest ways to rack up lots of hotel points is to take advantage of the systemwide bonuses that come from many of the big chain programs and also from the lesser known programs. In fact, right now it should be rare for you NOT to earn a bonus. Unless you are staying at a boutique hotel or perhaps an Accor or Fairmont Hotel most other hotels out there have a bonus. So take advantage of it! These systemwide bonuses simply require you to register beforehand and they do not affect hotel pricing as long as you book a point eligible rate which are most rates out there. Of course booking through a third party site like Expedia or Rocketmiles does not count as most chains only award points on bookings that are made directly with them.  Without further ado here are all the current promotions that are available to everyone:
