Aeroplan has a member acquisition offer out that is essentially the same one we saw for most of the last half of 2019. However this one appears to have an end date of January 31, 2020 so there isn’t much time to take advantage of it! Best bet is to join right away and then make an online purchase via the Aeroplan eStore by January 31 unless of course you can utilize another partner by that time.

Air Canada revealed a decent systemwide flight bonus offer yesterday! The new promotion covers all flights flown by Air Canada (including Rouge, Express, etc.) to all destinations Worldwide. It is a tiered promotion that offers bonuses from 1,000 miles to 7,500 miles depending on where you fly and what fare class you fly in. As is the case with all Air Canada Aeroplan flight promotions, only new bookings as of the launch date of the promotion count towards earning the bonus, in this case that means January 21. You have until February 4 to register for the promotion and book your flights but have until June 30 to actually complete them.Bonuses are awarded as follows:Good news is the bonus is open to everyone on a reservation unlike most Aeroplan flight promotions prior to December that only awarded it to the first person on the reservation.I really hope that this promotion is Air Canada and Aeroplan wanting to be generous as we are starting to see more flight bonuses from various airlines and more systemwide offers…
