Air Canada Aeroplan underwent a complete overhaul in 2020 and emerged as one of the strongest frequent flyer programs in the world. Fixed-rate partner awards, no fuel surcharges on most bookings, stopover privileges, and family sharing make Aeroplan the go-to program for premium cabin travel to Europe and Asia via Star Alliance partners. Here are the redemptions that deliver the best value.
Why This Matters
Aeroplan's competitive advantage is straightforward: fixed award pricing on partner flights with no fuel surcharges. This saves $400 to $600 per ticket compared to other Star Alliance programs on business class to Europe.
No Fuel Surcharges
Lufthansa business to Europe: 70,000 Aeroplan plus $50 taxes. Same flight through Miles and More: 70,000 plus $500+ surcharges. Savings of $400-$600 per ticket.
Stopover and Family Sharing
Free stopover on round-trip awards. Up to 8 family members pool points for free, instantly. Points never expire regardless of activity.
Key Details
- Transfer from Chase and Amex (both 1:1).
- Waitlisting available for partner flights without immediate saver space.
- Family sharing is free and instant for up to 8 members.
