Now that Air Canada is getting new Dreamliners soon with new reverse herringbone seats, I’m much more excited to fly them. As I detailed here, the Air Canada 787 is getting a new premium seat configuration on their new 787. The 787 has improved fuel efficiency so they can launch a lot of new routes…

Air Canada 787 Details and Information!
Today as I was on Twitter one of my followers tweeted about a website about the new Air Canada 787. My first impression is that I AM IMPRESSED! (For one who doesn’t fly long-haul economy, anyways :P). Air Canada has released details about their 787 and a seat map as well. Here are my thoughts about…
Aeroplan eStore 5x!!!
The Aeroplan eStore is offering 5 points per dollar which is very nice for eBay, Apple, Bose, and Sears (Canada). Pretty self-explanatory. This offer is for purchases from October 24 – 28. Each store will have their own terms and conditions so make sure you check those. Link to eStore is here. — Let’s connect: Twitter | Facebook | Instagram | Special Mailing…
Air Canada Earn Your Wings (Amazing Race) Returns!
In April I posted about a potentially lucrative Air Canada promo where theoretically you could have earned redeemable Aeroplan miles at less than one cent apiece, free flying included. Unfortunately the terms were modified which was disappointing, but I am glad they have brought this promotion back. Similar to the last promotion, you can earn…

A bit of new news from Aimia (Aeroplan) today as they clarify the new credit card agreement with the Canadian banks. Both CIBC and TD will issue Aeroplan co-branded cards. Here is the press release (with my comments): Montreal, Quebec, September 16, 2013 – Aimia confirmed today ten-year financial credit card agreements with each of…
Sweet Spot: The Best Redemption for Aeroplan ever!!
Yesterday I was chatting with my friend about how he wanted to go to Resolute, Nunavut. Obviously, the air fares are exorbitant as very limited airlines fly routes up north. I was just pricing a multi-city Vancouver – Iqaluit – Resolute- Vancouver trip on ITA Matrix. So I present to you the best economy class…
Another Big Devaluation to Air Canada Elites
I’ve quoted what the official representative on Air Canada has posted on Flyertalk and written a few sentences about each. This is a big devaluation in my opinion 🙁 More miles with many Air Canada fares Starting tomorrow – August 20 – all members will earn more Altitude Qualifying Miles on many Air Canada fares: Earn…
Good Value in the Aeroplan Award Chart – “Sweet Spots”
I often fault Aeroplan for being a very weak program because they have high fuel surcharges on certain airlines, fairly high award chart redemption prices, and semi-restrictive routing policies (but then every award program has it’s own quirks). But I think it’s worth mentioning a few redemptions where I believe the Aeroplan redemption costs are equal…
HUGE AEROPLAN DEVALUATION
I know some people might disagree with me, but I think this is definitely worse the the “enhancements” that Aeroplan brought in a few weeks back. It’s not Aeroplan’s doing at all, but I would think it is indirectly related to the AA/US merger. What has happened this morning is that the Aeroplan -> US…
Aeroplan Distinction Launch Promotion
Aeroplan is launching a promo with their new Distinction program, which I wrote about here. It seems like any members who reach dBlack will receive an additional 10,000 Aeroplan and members who reach dDiamond status will receive an addition 5,000 miles in additional to the 10,000 miles from dBlack qualification. Registration is required for the promotion, which you can…
