Delta Air Lines’ loyalty program, SkyMiles, has been hit with a lot of devaluation news in the last while. But if you are still a fan of Delta Air Lines, below is a list of most of its destinations out of a Canadian airport.
I have been quite excited about the American Airlines/U.S. Airways merger, so I have put together a list of destinations that both airlines fly to within Canada.
You can earn Asia Miles by flying on any of the Oneworld alliance flights. But for the most part, Asia Miles is associated the Cathay Pacific airline. The reason why Asia Miles can be valuable for Canadians is because you…
American Airlines has a loyalty program called AAdvantage. Unfortunately, there are no Canadian credit cards in Canada that allows you to accumulate AAdvantage points. That being said, that doesn’t mean that Canadians cannot also earn AAdvantage points.
When it comes to maximizing the value of your points, it is important to know what flights are offered at your local airport. But first, you need to determine what type of spender and traveller you are. Are you a…

It has been well-documented that people have trouble redeeming their Aeroplan points and getting a fair value. I wrote a post about how to maximize your Aeroplan points. In terms of Aeroplan, the bottom line is that you need to redeem your points on Star Alliance partners to get more value out of your points. If you do not fly internationally often enough or you do not fly to the destinations of any of the partnered airlines, then maybe Air Canada is not your best bet.
I often hear a lot of complaints about the Aeroplan program. The usual suspects are: lack of award availability, blackout dates, high tax and surcharge fees, etc. There is an article from CBC that talks about the high fuel surcharges with…
Before going into depth about this credit card, I would like to point out that Cathay Pacific is a member of the Oneworld alliance, which means that any points that you accumulate with this airline, you can use to redeem on any of its member partners. Airlines that are members of an alliance makes their loyalty points that much more valuable because it gives you so much more flexibility when looking for award bookings. With Cathay Pacific flights, you earn Asia Miles points.
