There are changes coming to the American Express® Aeroplan®* Card

1. Basic Cardmembers (“Cardmembers”) will receive a reduction of 15% on the Aeroplan points required to redeem for the base fare of eligible flight rewards, as compared to the number of points required to book the same itinerary by an Aeroplan member who is not a Cardmember. The points reduction applies to any inbound or outbound origin and destination pairing where the corresponding outbound or inbound origin and destination travel is fully operated by Air Canada, Air Canada Rouge or under the Air Canada Express brand and booked through aircanada.com, the Air Canada Mobile application, or the Air Canada call centre. The reduction will not apply where only a portion of the outbound origin and destination pairing or only a portion of the inbound origin and destination pairing is fully operated by Air Canada, Air Canada Rouge or under the Air Canada Express brand. The reduction is non-transferable and has no monetary or exchange value. Cardmembers must be logged into their Aeroplan account at the time of booking. Gift cards and eCoupons can only be applied to the cash portion of the ticket. The Aeroplan account (including pooled accounts) must have sufficient points for the Aeroplan flight rewards redemption. Changes and cancellations follow Aeroplan Flight Reward Policy rules, and the Aeroplan member must remain a Basic Cardmember to be eligible for any future reductions to apply in the event of any changes to the booking. All Aeroplan Program terms and conditions apply.

2. The Air Canada Flight Benefit (the “Coupon”), is a benefit available only to Basic Cardmembers. The Basic Cardmember will receive one $25 CAD equivalent Coupon every six months for up to $50 CAD equivalent in a calendar year as set forth below.

Coupons are issued to the Basic Cardmember’s AC Wallet twice every calendar year, on January 15 and July 15. Each Coupon expires six (6) months after issuance.

The Coupon is valid towards a new booking only, and not valid on existing reservations. The Coupon may be applied as a credit toward the total cost of an eligible booking, including the base fare, for cash flight bookings marketed and operated by Air Canada®, Air Canada Rouge®, or under the Air Canada Express® brand. Bookings must be made directly with Air Canada, via aircanada.com, the Air Canada mobile application, or through the Air Canada Contact Centre, and are subject to applicable fare rules and conditions. Booking must be made before the Coupon expiry date; travel may occur after the Coupon expiry date subject to flight schedule availability at the time of booking. Coupon may only be used as described, cannot be transferred and has no monetary or exchange value. To be eligible to receive and use a Coupon, the Basic Cardmember’s Aeroplan account must be in good standing and linked to the Aeroplan credit card by no later than 72 hours prior to the date the Coupon is issued. Supplementary Cardmembers are not eligible to receive a Coupon.

Unused Coupon(s) will automatically be cancelled from the AC Wallet upon credit card account closure, regardless of reason for closure.

If a Coupon is applied to a booking and the booking is cancelled or changed, the Coupon will be treated in accordance with the Air Canada’s applicable booking, change, and cancellation policies. Where a Coupon is reinstated to the Basic Cardmember’s AC Wallet pursuant to Air Canada’s applicable booking, change and cancellation policies, the original expiry date of that Coupon will continue to apply. If such change or cancellation occurs after the Coupon’s original expiry date, the Coupon will be expired.

Air Canada reserves the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue the Coupon benefit, including the amounts, issuance schedule, eligibility, and validity periods, at any time.

All Aeroplan Program and AC Wallet Terms and Conditions apply.

3. The “Get a 4th Night Free” hotel benefit (the “Benefit”) applies to hotel room redemption bookings made by Basic Cardmembers and linked Supplementary Cardmembers with Aeroplan points at participating hotels. Unless otherwise permitted, the Benefit cannot be combined with any other offer.

For every 4 night consecutive hotel stay at a participating hotel booked using only Aeroplan points from the Aeroplan account of the Cardmember (or their Aeroplan family pooling account) on the travel booking website operated by Loyalty Travel Agency LLC, doing business as CX Loyalty (the “Website”), the Cardmember will receive a reduction equal to the average Aeroplan points value of one night within the 4 night stay. For example, a Cardmember booking a 4-night consecutive stay will only need to redeem Aeroplan points for 3 nights (e.g., 15,000 points per night required for 4 nights is 60,000 points but under the Benefit you only require 45,000 points (15,000 x 3) for the 4 nights). Or for an 8-night consecutive stay, the Cardmember will only need to redeem Aeroplan points for 6 nights and so forth.

The nights must be within the same stay at the same participating hotel, as part of the same booking and under the same confirmation number. Separate bookings cannot be combined to qualify for the Benefit. There will be no points refund or free night credit for any unused portion of the Benefit.

The redemption booking summary will show the taxes and fees included in the points redemption rate. Local taxes and fees (such as destination and/or resort fees) may not be included in your hotel room points redemption rate and will still apply to each hotel night booked with points and be payable directly at the hotel. Refer to the Travel Terms and Conditions of Loyalty Travel Agency LLC for more details.

The number of points required for hotel redemption can fluctuate from night to night. The free night is based on the calculation of the average points cost per hotel room redemption night across all nights of the stay of 4 nights or longer. The average points required for one hotel room night redemption will then be removed from the total stay, one for every 4-night stay.

The amount of Aeroplan points required per night varies by the participating hotel, room type available at the participating hotel, length of stay, and may also vary by time of year. Points required per hotel room night redemption are updated continuously and may change at any time without notice.

The Benefit applies to hotel redemptions of all room types made using only Aeroplan points on the Website. The Benefit is not applicable to bookings combining cash and points or cash only bookings. The Cardmember must have enough Aeroplan points (either in their own Aeroplan account or in their Aeroplan family pooling account) to cover the Aeroplan points required for the entire stay after applying the reduction corresponding to the average Aeroplan points required per one night for that stay, if and as applicable.

All Aeroplan Program terms and conditions apply.

American Express is not responsible for the fulfillment of the Benefit or the terms and conditions. The Aeroplan program is a loyalty rewards and recognition program operated by Air Canada’s subsidiary Aeroplan Inc.

4. The “Get a 4th Day Free” vehicle rental benefit (the “Benefit”) applies to eligible vehicle rental bookings made by Basic Cardmembers and linked Supplementary Cardmembers with Aeroplan points at participating car rental providers. Unless otherwise permitted, the Benefit cannot be combined with any other offer.

For every 4 day consecutive vehicle rental booked with a participating car rental provider using only Aeroplan points from the Aeroplan account of the Cardmember (or their Aeroplan family pooling account) on the travel booking website operated by Loyalty Travel Agency LLC, doing business as CX Loyalty (the “Website”), the Cardmember will receive a reduction equal to the average Aeroplan points value of one of those four rental days within the 4 day reservation. For example, a Cardmember booking a 4-day consecutive rental will only need to redeem Aeroplan points for 3 days (e.g., 10,000 points per day required for 4 days is 40,000 points, but under the Benefit you only require 30,000 points (10,000 × 3) for the 4 days). For an 8-day consecutive rental, the Cardmember will only need to redeem Aeroplan points for 6 days, and so forth.

The rental days must be part of the same booking, for the same vehicle, at the same participating rental provider, and under the same confirmation number. Separate bookings cannot be combined to qualify for the Benefit. There will be no points refund or free day credit for any unused portion of the Benefit.

The redemption booking summary will show the taxes and fees included in the points redemption rate. Local taxes, surcharges, fuel charges, insurance, and other fees may not be included in your vehicle rental points redemption rate and will still apply to each rental day booked with points and must be paid directly to the rental provider. Refer to the Travel Terms and Conditions of Loyalty Travel Agency LLC for more details.

The number of points required for vehicle redemption can fluctuate from day to day. The free day is based on the calculation of the average points cost per rental day across all days of the rental of 4 days or longer. The average points required for one rental day redemption will then be removed from the total booking, one for every 4 rental days.

The amount of Aeroplan points required per rental day varies by participating rental provider, vehicle type, location, length of rental, and may also vary by time of year. Points required per rental day are updated continuously and may change at any time without notice. The Benefit applies to vehicle rental redemptions made using only Aeroplan points on the Website.

The Benefit is not applicable to bookings combining cash and points or cash only bookings. The Cardmember must have enough Aeroplan points (either in their own Aeroplan account or in their Aeroplan family pooling account) to cover the Aeroplan points required for the entire rental after applying the reduction corresponding to the average Aeroplan points required per one rental day, if and as applicable.

All Aeroplan Program terms and conditions apply.

American Express is not responsible for the fulfillment of the Benefit or the terms and conditions. The Aeroplan program is a loyalty rewards and recognition program operated by Air Canada’s subsidiary Aeroplan Inc.
