– RewardsCanada.ca
We are now starting to see Aeroplan flight bonuses from Air Canada with some regularity! This is great for travellers but based on my 18 years of tracking bonus offers this could also be bad news. Not for flyer but the general health of the country’s economy. While I haven’t seen any full fledged research behind it, we typically see an uptick in flight bonus offers from airlines when their planes fly less full, and more times then not they fly less full because of a poor economy. Case in point, 4-5 years ago when it seemed every country was hurting economically we were listing upwards of 700 or more route bonuses at one time on our site. For the past 2-4 years that has dwindled to as little as 100 or less globally! Hopefully I’m wrong with this but over the past 3-4 months I have seen more airline route bonuses being released around the globe. Anyways back to this promotion!With this offer you can earn double Aeroplan miles (100% bonus) or triple Aeroplan miles (200% bonus) when you fly from any city in Canada that Air Canada serves to select cities in Canada or the U…

As soon as it available again we’ll be sure to pass that news along. Air France KLM and Accor Hotels have announced a new partnership that follows in line with partnerships we have seen in the past like United & Marriott, Emirates/Delta & SPG etc. At the moment it is strictly based on points/miles earning and conversion but hopefully it is expanded in the future with some reciprocal elite benefits like the other airline/hotel tie ups we’ve seen. This may be of interest to some Canadian’s seeing that Le Club AccorHotels is now the loyalty program for Fairmont Hotels.
