It has been a while since I last wrote post about flights from a common destination. In the United States, we have written about Atlanta, Chicago, Los Angeles, New York City and Washington D.C. Today, we add the Detroit Metropolitan Airport (DTW) to this list.
In a previous post, we wrote about Aeroplan’s Fixed Rate and Market Fare reward tickets. Fixed Rate tickets are exactly what their name is, a standard award redemption rate which does not change any time of the year that you book the ticket (unless there is an overall program changes). For Market Fare rates, they are based on whether you travel during high or low season, which allows you to redeem the ticket at a lower or higher rate than the fixed rate.
For those of you who do not rent a car very often and do not want to earn car rental points, another option to consider is to bank the rewards that you would earned to an airline partner. Aeroplan is a partner of Avis and Hertz. Currently, these 2 car rental companies are offering 3 Aeroplan bonus miles promotions each.
Today’s post is more about catering to my hobby. I was actually curious to find out what is the longest flight departing from Canada. Below is a list of the top 3 flights ranked by distance.
Alaska Airlines appears to be growing in popularity in Canada, so it’s only fair to give a rundown of the airline and its loyalty program, Mileage Plan. Note that Alaska Airlines is not a member of any airline alliance, but they do have several co-share partners that you can earn miles with.
Cathay Pacific has probably flown a little under the radar in Canada, but there are some interesting opportunities to be had if you dig a little closer. First of all, it is important to note that Cathay Pacific has two loyalty programs: The Marco Polo Club and Asia Miles. Members of Marco Polo Club are automatically enrolled as Asia Miles members. For the purposes of this post, we will be focusing on Asia Miles.
Once it has been done, it seems like the ball is going to keep on rolling. Air Canada and WestJet are really trying to duel it out, in terms of Christmas holiday videos.
As a Canadian, I revolve my frequent flying earning between two major programs which dominate most of our country: Airmiles and Aeroplan. While you can earn and use Aeroplan points on Star Alliance partners, there are also many other ways you can earn your Aeroplan miles.
