🎉 Latest Aeroplan eStore Promotion: 5x on Apple
Have you ever contemplated how to maximize your Aeroplan points without setting foot on an airplane?
Welcome to the Aeroplan eStore, a treasure trove of opportunities to accumulate points for your next dream adventure.
The foundational earning rate stands at 1 point for every dollar spent, excluding taxes and shipping. Considering that we estimate each Aeroplan point to be worth at least 1 cent (though it can easily be worth 2 cents or more with strategic redemptions), you're essentially gaining an additional 1-2% return on your spending. Nevertheless, this rate can fluctuate based on the retailer, with some offering up to 10 points per dollar during limited-time periods.
Aeroplan is currently presenting a tempting promotion: up to 5 points per dollar on select Apple products, valid until October 29, 2023. However, it's crucial to be mindful of exclusions, notably the iPhone 15 series and certain Apple Watch models.
Furthermore, a multitude of other retailers are offering enhanced returns of 5x Aeroplan points. Amazon is another notable participant (although it is limited to specific product categories).
Here's a pro tip: Last Black Friday witnessed the eStore offering an impressive 10x points at various retailers. While there's no guarantee of a repeat, postponing purchases might just pay off, especially if you're not in a rush to buy. Based on the past two years' data, these 5x promotions occur every few months.
In conclusion, the Aeroplan eStore is a goldmine for those seeking to bolster their points balance. With strategic shopping and a vigilant eye for promotions, your dream adventure may be closer than you think! Safe travels and happy shopping!
Double Your Avios Points with British Airways New Promotion
British Airways introduces a new offer for Executive Club members, allowing them to earn double Avios on upcoming paid flights extending into early 2024.
To take advantage of this, Executive Club members must first register before booking their flights. Registration is crucial, as flights booked prior to registering won't be eligible for double Avios.
Once registered, the window to book flights with British Airways extends until November 21, 2023. The offer enables travelers to earn double Avios on up to 10 flights, provided that these journeys are completed by January 14, 2024.
Remember to include your British Airways Executive Club account number when booking to ensure eligibility for the doubled Avios. Eligible flights include those between Europe and North America in partnership with American Airlines, Iberia, and Finnair.
British Airways has adjusted to a revenue-based earning model, with Avios earned depending on your status level and spending on various aspects like base fare, surcharges, and extras such as seat selection or upgrades.
Here's a breakdown of the Avios earned by status:
Blue members: 6 Avios per £1 spent
Bronze members: 7 Avios per £1 spent
Silver members: 8 Avios per £1 spent
Gold and above members: 9 Avios per £1 spent
With the "Double Avios Promotion," these numbers double, resulting in the following Avios earnings, based on your status:
Blue members: 12 Avios per £1 spent
Bronze members: 14 Avios per £1 spent
Silver members: 16 Avios per £1 spent
Gold and above members: 18 Avios per £1 spent
Considering the value of Avios at 1.5 cents per Avios (USD) / 2 cents per Avios (CAD), you can estimate the return on spending through the promotion. Even Blue members can earn a substantial amount of Avios with this offer.
As an example, a round-trip economy flight from Toronto to London in December 2023, with a total cost of $1,198 (CAD) or roughly £713, would earn the following Avios based on status:
Blue members: 8,556 Avios
Bronze members: 9,982 Avios
Silver members: 11, 048 Avios
Gold and above members: 12, 834 Avios
For reference:
7,500 Avios can secure a one-way off-peak flight in economy for distances between 651 and 1,151 miles, which is getting as far as Warsaw from London (or pretty much anywhere in Central & Western europe)
10,000 Avios allow for a one-way off-peak flight in economy between 1,152 and 2,000 miles, like London to Istanbul.
Additionally, there's the opportunity to earn bonus points for the amount charged to your credit card. If you use the RBC British Airways Visa Infinite to pay for the same flight, you'd earn an extra 2 Avios per dollar spent (CAD), resulting in an additional 2,710 Avios in the given example.
While we don’t recommend booking flights solely for the purpose of accumulating Avios,but if you were planning a trip with British Airways during the holiday season, taking advantage of this promotion could yield a get you some substantial return in Avios points.
