Earn Bonus eUpgrades and SQM with Amex Aeroplan Reserve Status Offer

Air Canada and American Express are reintroducing a special offer for the American Express Aeroplan Reserve Card, exclusively for Aeroplan Elite Status members.

The Offer

Elite members who are approved for a new card and earn 20,000 Aeroplan points between April 25 and July 31, 2024, will receive an additional 20 eUpgrades and 15,000 Status Qualifying Miles (SQM) on top of the card’s regular welcome bonus! 

How to Earn

You can earn the extra 20 eUpgrades and 15,000 SQM by:

  1. Registering for the offer.

  2. Applying for and being approved for a new American Express Aeroplan Reserve Card.

  3. And earning 20,000 Aeroplan points posted to their account by July 31, 2024.

Important note: This offer is only valid for new applications made between April 25 and July 31, 2024. Existing cardholders who reapply are not eligible for the offer.

Things to Consider

It’s important to note that points earned as part of the welcome bonus, referrals, or points transferred into the account do not count towards the total…sadly. Only points earned through the card’s base earning rate and category multipliers qualify, which makes things harder for interested cardholders. 💳

As a reminder, here are the earn rates:

  • 3X the Aeroplan points on travel booked via Air Canada and Air Canada Vacations

  • 2X the Aeroplan points on dining and food delivery 

  • 1X on Everything else

For those who aren’t as familiar with Aeroplan’s Status System, Aeroplan SQM or Status Qualifying Miles, is essentially a measure used by Aeroplan to determine your status within their loyalty program. These miles are earned through eligible flight activities and certain credit card spending. They contribute towards achieving or maintaining Aeroplan Elite Status levels, such as Aeroplan 25K, 35K, 50K, and Super Elite.

Reaching Aeroplan Elite Status, thanks to those SQM, unlocks a range of benefits, like priority check-in, boarding, and access to airport lounges, which we love! 💺 There are also complimentary upgrades, exclusive member rewards, and enhanced earning rates on flights, plus more.

You can see why this current offer is something to consider since you’ll be able to reach this status level faster with a little less work than you would originally have to!

How to Apply

If you’re interested, you should register for the offer before applying. Once you are approved, as explained above you must earn 20,000 Aeroplan points via credit card spending, which must be posted to the account by July 31, 2024.

Additionally, you must maintain Aeroplan Elite Status between April 25 and July 31, 2024, to be eligible.

Final Thoughts

Overall, the Amex Aeroplan Status Offer is a pretty good opportunity for Aeroplan Elite members to earn additional perks by meeting the specific spending threshold within the limited timeframe.

2X Flying Blue Miles Offer

Air France KLM Flying Blue has launched a new promotion that doubles your Flying Blue Miles on all flights from Canada to any destination by the two airlines! It's open to all Canadians who are members of the Flying Blue program, which is free to join by the way, as explained in our previous newsletters.🗞️

Promo Overview

The bonus applies to all mileage-earning tickets (economy, premium economy, and business class) booked between April 26 and May 12, 2024, for travel until August 26, 2024, giving you the entire summer to profit off your travels. 💸

How to Earn 2x

Simply book your flights with Air France or KLM between the dates and ensure your Flying Blue number is added to your reservation.

How Miles Earned

Flying Blue awards miles are based on your ticket price and your membership level within the program but here’s a breakdown:

  • Explorer members: earn 4 miles for every euro spent 

  • Silver members: earn 6 miles for every euro spent 

  • Gold members: earn 7 miles for every euro spent 

  • Platinum members: earn 8 miles for every euro spent

With this current promotion, you’ll earn double the miles depending on your member level!

Best Way to Earn Miles

Based on the promotion above, the Air France KLM Flying Blue Mastercard is the best card to earn Flying Blue Miles! You'll earn an extra 5 Flying Blue Miles per Euro spent on these flights. Plus, if you read last week's newsletter, the card comes with a signup bonus of up to 60,000 bonus Flying Blue Miles when you apply by June 10, 2024.

You can also transfer Amex points at a 1:0.75 ratio from American Express credit cards if that’s easier!
