Aeroplan and Toyota Canada partnership now in full effect! Bonus miles on car purchases, free miles for test drives and more!
– RewardsCanada.ca
As we mentioned a few months ago, Aeroplan and Toyota signed an agreement to award Aeroplan miles on Toyota & Scion purchases and other services. At that time details of the partnership were vague but as of yesterday we now know what it entails. It is very similar to the Aeroplan-Volvo partnership in that you can earn miles for vehicle purchases, servicing and test drives! The best part is that with test drives you earn 250 Aeroplan miles for free! However unlike the Volvo deal where you can earn 250 miles every 30 days the Toyota deal limits you to 3 test drives per year with the 30 day limitation between test drives. This means you can earn 750 Aeroplan Miles per year for free just for test driving Toyota vehicles. Add in 3,000 miles if you test drive a Volvo every month and you have 3,750 Aeroplan miles. You can learn all about the partnership and current offers at http://www.toyota.ca/toyota/en/aeroplanBack to the new Toyota deal, the partnership offers 5,000 Aeroplan miles as a base offer for buying a Toyota vehicle and to celebrate the new partnership there are also bonuses depending on the price level of the car and they are doubling the total miles earned if that vehicle is a Venza or Sequoia…How closed accounts affect credit history, scores
