I recently tried to redeem my Aeroplan miles for a United Airlines flight; however, there was no availability. But when I logged into MileagePlus, I saw the award flight available. Unfortunately, that means that the reward seat has not been released to Aeroplan yet. As we get closer to the date, if that award availability is not booked, then it will probably be send to Star Alliance partners, including Aeroplan.
I guess I have been busier than I expected, so I only came across this video today. Every year, WestJet has their Christmas Miracle video (2013, 2014 and 2015). Out of all the years, this is the most touching one.
Just a couple of days away from Boxing Day. As I have stated in the past, don’t underestimate the bonuses miles that you can earn through online shopping portals. Currently, the stronger Canadian shopping portal is with Aeroplan. Below are some of the bonus mile offers to watch out for.
Aeroplan is offering readers 250 bonus miles for sharing your experience about a recent Aeroplan reward flight. Just click on this link.
With all the negativity surrounding Air Miles, Aeroplan has actually become much more valuable to me. So today, I will write a post about the 5 easiest ways to keep your account active without flying. For the options that I will list, I will focus on the least hassle and most cost effective way of keeping your account active.
It has been a while since I last provided Saturday updates, so I thought I’d do one today. Today’s theme will focus on two Star Alliance members, Air Canada and United Airlines.
The question has been asked frequently about whether it is more worth it to redeem your hard earned miles for economy or first class. Some people would argue that they rather have more trips, so economy. Others want to be able to redeem for a First Class or Business Class treatment that they would otherwise not pay for normally
This post is long overdue for an update. Last time around, I still listed Air Miles as one of the top 5. With the upcoming controversial expiry policy (which may be altered anyway by a new legislation), they will temporary be bumped out of the top 5.
There is a week left on the Royal Bank of Canada’s Avion (or RBC Rewards) program’s 15% transfer bonus to WestJet Rewards. It has been running since October 3, 2016, and ends on November 14, 2016. Historically, it is a disappointing transfer bonus, that is why I held off writing about it. I will explain why below.
I thought we’d be stuck with the 30% RBC conversion bonus for the foreseeable future. I really did not expect to see the 50% bonus back again. The last time it was offered was back in the summer of 2015. I am more than happy to find out that I was wrong about this. This is a very pleasant surprise with RBC and Executive Club.
