Last month, Air Canada announced new onboard features to its products and services. The upgrades included expanded in-flight food and beverage options.
Air Canada was generous enough to send me a sample of their new beverage options as shown in our featured picture. Thank you Air Canada!
We just received a heads up from Air Canada’s Aeroplan that “due to a spike in misuse related to Family Sharing we’ve suspended the ability to create new Family Sharing accounts, including by telephone with an Aeroplan representative.” This is…
Some BIG NEWS from Neo Financial. They have partnered with Cathay Pacific to launch a new card program for Canadian. The goal is to launch in the fall of 2023.
People can now register to join the wait-list for this new card. Below are the planned highlights of the card:
![[PROMOTION] 30% Transfer Bonus to British Airways Avios (Last Chance)](https://pointshogger.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/British-Airways-768x238.jpg)
RBC is one again offering a 30% transfer bonus to British Airways’ Executive Club, which is the same 30% offer exactly 6 months ago (between October 3, 2022 and November 16, 2022). Conversion bonuses are an amazing way to boost account balances without any extra cost or effort (aside from having the transferable points readily available).
Effective May 3, 2023, Aeroplan members can earn 1 Aeroplan point per $1 spent on eligible orders in the Grocery and Retail sections of the Uber Eats App, with no minimum spend required. The launch further expands Aeroplan’s relationship with Uber, giving members another new way to earn Aeroplan points with national and regional grocers and retailers.
Air Canada’s Aeroplan and Parkland’s Journie Rewards are teaming up to increase earning and redemption opportunities.
Parkland owns and operates Canadian gas stations including Ultramar, Chevron, Pioneer, Fas Gas, and ON the RUN and Marché Express. These stations allow customers to earn Journie Rewards, which we are a big fan of. The partnership is set to launch in the fall of 2023.
![[PROMOTION] Earn up to 3,475 Aeroplan with LCBO](https://pointshogger.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/LCBO-768x344.jpg)
Today only, Friday, April 7, 2023, LCBO is offering 2x bonus Aeroplan points on all online only purchases. Aeroplan members can stack this 2x promotion with 2 other existing Aeroplan / LCBO offers to earn even more bonus points.
Just a few weeks ago, we were writing a post praising WestJet’s move to takeover Sunwing. The hope was that with the merger, WestJet would be able to somewhat compete with Air Canada, the most dominant Canadian airline. But before WestJet can give Air Canada a run for their money, it looks like they have to take care of their own house first.
Air Canada has added PAL Airlines, one of Eastern Canada’s independent airlines. Aeroplan members can now earn and redeem points on PAL operated flights throughout Quebec and the Maritimes.
Aeroplan gives its members the ability to purchase points on a regular basis. Sometimes, they have a bonus offer when making this purchase. Let’s discuss the offer first and then I will share some of my thoughts on purchasing or gifting.
