1. These offers are only available to new American Express® Aeroplan®* Reserve Cardmembers (‘Cardmembers’). For current or former American Express Aeroplan Reserve Cardmembers, we may approve your application, but you will not be eligible for these offers. If you receive points in error, we reserve the right to deduct them from your points balance. Account must be in good standing. Interest charges, annual fees, other fees and cash equivalent transactions are not purchases and do not qualify for Aeroplan points. All deductions for returns made on eligible purchases will be calculated at the earn rate in effect at the time of the return. This means that the points deducted from your points balance may be different from the amount originally earned. Points may be deducted if returns result in the required spend threshold not being achieved. Please allow up to 8 weeks after earning your Aeroplan points for your Aeroplan account to be updated.
30,000 Aeroplan Points
To qualify for the welcome bonus of 30,000 Aeroplan points, you must have at least $3,000 in net purchases posted to your account on or before your three (3) month anniversary date.

Up to a maximum of 60,000 Aeroplan points can be earned. Purchases made during a billing period but posted after the end of that billing period will not count towards eligible spend for that month and count towards eligible spend for the next billing period. For example, if your monthly billing period is from Aug 15 to Sept 14, a purchase made on Sept 14th (transaction date) and posts on Sept 15th (posting date) will not count for eligible spend for that month and will count towards spend in the next month's billing period. If the Aug 15 to Sept 14 period was your 12th monthly billing period, then the purchase that was made on Sept 14 and posted on Sept 15 would not count toward this offer. Account must be in good standing. Please allow up to eight weeks for your bonus points to be awarded.
Bonus Buddy Pass
The one-time bonus Buddy Pass entitles a companion to accompany the Basic Cardmember, when the Basic Cardmember books and pays for a published economy fare (plus taxes and third-party charges) on a flight marketed and operated by Air Canada, Air Canada Rouge or under the Air Canada Express brand and is booked for travel within North America.
Basic Cardmembers can earn one (1) bonus Buddy Pass after spending $3,000 in net purchases (less any returns, credits and adjustments) posted to the Basic Cardmember’s card account in the first three (3) months of Cardmembership.
The pass will be deposited into the Basic Cardmember’s Aeroplan account 8-10 weeks after the pass is earned.
This one-time bonus Buddy Pass offer is only available to eligible Aeroplan Cardmembers. You will not be eligible for the Buddy Pass if you have previously opened an Aeroplan credit or charge card of the same type, regardless of the credit or charge card issuer and have received the Welcome Bonus offer of a bonus Buddy Pass in the last 12 months. This offer is subject to change and cannot be combined with any other offers. The Basic Cardmember’s account must be and remain active (not cancelled) and in good standing in order to receive and retain the pass.

The pass is valid for 12 months from the date of issuance. The pass is valid towards a new booking only, and not valid on existing reservations. Bookings must be made directly with Air Canada, via aircanada.com, the Air Canada Mobile App, or through the Air Canada call center (“Air Canada Reservations”).

The pass must be redeemed at time of purchase of the Basic Cardmember’s ticket, and if multiple Buddy Passes are available in association with the same Aeroplan number, the pass that would expire first will be used. Booking must be made before the pass expiry date; travel may occur after the pass expiry date subject to flight schedule availability at the time of booking.
The pass may only be used as described, cannot be transferred and has no monetary or exchange value. Changes or cancellations are allowed according to the fare rules of the fare purchased.
Changes and cancellations must be made at the same time for both the Basic Cardmember and the companion, and failure to do so may result in the Buddy Pass being forfeited. If during a change or cancellation the ticket is reinstated in the Basic Cardmember’s Aeroplan account, the original expiry date will take effect and the pass may then be considered expired. In the event of a change or cancellation, travelers are required to pay all applicable fees based on the fare type purchased for each ticket, plus the difference in fare, if applicable, and all taxes and third-party charges that apply above the base fare.
Companions who are members of the Aeroplan program or other partner frequent flyer programs will not be eligible to accumulate points and/or miles for the ticket issued in exchange for the pass. Aeroplan Elite Status benefits and upgrades are applicable if the traveler holds appropriate status and the fare purchased allows for such benefits and upgrades.
