Credit Card Review: RBC Avion Visa Infinite Card

One of the first travel rewards cards to offer any flight any time potential, the RBC Avion Visa Infinite Card has been a mainstay in the travel credit card market for well over a decade. The card, which we first reviewed in 2011 is by far one of the most popular in Canada. Over the years we had some band-aid updates to that review so we thought it's time to do a complete refresh for 2022!

30% bonus when you convert hotel points to United MileagePlus Miles

United has brought back their bonus for converting hotel points to MileagePlus miles. The bonus for this iteration of the promotion is 30% and you are allowed to earn a maximum of 25,000 bonus miles across all your transfers. Really the only transfer that can make sense is converting Marriott Bonvoy points since they transfer at a a 3 to 1.1 ratio. You’ll also want to do it in 60,000 point batches to ensure you get the extra miles from Marriott. All other hotel programs have pretty terrible conversion ratios however if you have orphaned points in those programs that you know you’ll never use, then by all means convert them over so you can get something of value from them.

One additional Marriott Hotel to open in the Montreal area and Canada's second Radisson Blu Hotel to open in Vancouver

Here's your Rewards Canada update! Your near daily dose of loyalty program, credit card and travel news, bonuses, deals and more.

There is one more new Marriott Hotel set to open this year now. The Residence Inn Laval has popped up on Marriott's website and right now they are stating an opening date of December 2022. If you recall from our post on New Marriott Hotel Openings in Canada for 2022 the year started off with just 6 new hotels planned for this year. This is now the ninth hotel on the list however it does not appear that the Moxy Banff or Moxy Halifax will make their opening this year now so we may me end up with seven new hotels for this year. This new hotel in Laval is situated right near the Cosmodome museum and was formerly a Quality Suites Hotel. Click here to learn more about this new hotel.
