Air Canada is offering a bonus when you buy Aeroplan points, allowing you to top off your account for an upcoming redemption. This promotion is a great way to snag a premium cabin award ticket, so don’t miss out!
From now until July 17, 2025, Aeroplan members can buy Aeroplan points with a bonus of up to 100%.
The bonus you’ll receive is tiered based on the number of points you purchase:
The purchase price is CAD 0.0375 (~USD 0.028) when buying from the US site. At the highest bonus tier, the price effectively drops to USD 0.0138 per point, which can represent excellent value for certain premium cabin awards. Make sure to check the cash price of any ticket you are aiming to redeem for to ensure buying points is worthwhile.
Whether buying Aeroplan points is worth it depends entirely on how you’ll use them. However, generally, the increased bonus rate makes this promotion more attractive. With business and first-class redemptions going for over $5,000 or more, purchasing points below 1.38 can mean extreme savings.
Here’s a walkthrough of how to decide if buying points makes sense for your situation:
Consider other options: Sometimes, purchasing points with a partner airline within the Star Alliance network can be more cost-effective than buying Aeroplan points directly.
Before buying Aeroplan points, you should consider applying for the Aeroplan Credit Card.
While this promotion offers a decent bonus on purchased points, it’s generally best to buy Aeroplan points only when you have a specific redemption in mind. It’s not advisable to purchase points speculatively, in case program terms or award charts change in the future.
