†“Get a 4th Night Free” Hotel Offer Terms & Conditions
“Get a 4th Night Free” hotel offer (the “Offer”) for hotel room redemption bookings at participating hotels made with Aeroplan points between 12:01am ET September 13, 2023 and 11:59pm ET on December 31, 2025, unless extended by Primary or linked Supplementary Aeroplan Co brand Cardmembers s (each a “Cardmember” and collectively “Cardmembers”). Unless otherwise permitted, the Offer cannot be combined with any other offer. For every 4 night consecutive hotel stays at a participating hotel using only Aeroplan points from the Aeroplan account of the Cardmember booked on the travel booking website operated by Loyalty Travel Agency LLC, doing business as cxLoyalty (the “Website”), a Cardmember will be able to stay one of those four nights at that same hotel during that same stay under the same confirmation number for no additional Aeroplan points. For example, a Cardmember booking a 4 night consecutive stay will only need to redeem Aeroplan points for 3 nights (i.e., 15,000 points per night required for 4 nights is 60,000 points but under the Offer 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, and you can’t combine separate bookings and still get an extra night. There will be no points refund or free night credit for any unused portion of the Offer. 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.
Hotel redemption pricing in points can fluctuate from night to night and the free night is based on the average points cost per hotel room redemption night across all nights of the stay of 4 nights or longer that will be calculated. The average points required for one hotel room night redemption will then be removed from the total of the 4 nights.
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. If a Cardmember makes a modification to a booking made pursuant to the Offer, the Cardmember will be responsible for any changes to the number of points required for the hotel room redemption nights.
The Offer applies to hotel redemptions of all room types made using only Aeroplan points on the Website. Offer is not applicable to bookings combining cash and points or cash only. To participate in the Offer, a Cardmember must have enough Aeroplan points (either in their own Aeroplan account or in their Aeroplan family pooling account) to cover the cost of redeeming for at least 3 hotel room nights at the selected participating hotel.
The Offer is not transferable and is not redeemable for cash. If the Offer is not running as planned for any reason, including infection by computer virus, bugs, tampering, unauthorized intervention, fraud, technical failures, pandemic or any other causes beyond the reasonable control which corrupt or affect the administration, security or proper conduct of the Offer, the Offer can be terminated or suspended, in whole or in part, or modified in any way, without advance notice. Furthermore, any individual that is believed to be tampering with the process or the operation of the Offer can be disqualified from the Offer and banned from any future offers.

Any guest entering a Maple Leaf Lounge or an Air Canada Café must be accompanied by a Basic or eligible Supplementary Cardmember. Additional guest(s) may enter the Maple Leaf Lounge or Air Canada Café upon paying the applicable fee.

For more information on Aeroplan EliteTM* Status, please visit www.aircanada.com/elitebenefits. Access to Maple Leaf Lounges or Air Canada Cafés is available in conjunction with a same-day ticket when departing on a flight marketed or operated by Air Canada, Air Canada Rouge®*, under the Air Canada Express®* brand, or any Star Alliance member airline.
Anyone under the age of majority entering a Maple Leaf Lounge or an Air Canada Café must be accompanied by an adult with access to the lounge. Age of majority is determined by the jurisdiction in which the Maple Leaf Lounge or Air Canada Café is located. Benefit may only be used as described, and otherwise cannot be transferred.

2 A Basic Cardmember or Supplementary Cardmember, and up to eight (8) other passengers traveling on the same reservation (up to a maximum of nine (9) travellers), are each entitled to Priority Check-in (where available), Zone 2 Priority Boarding and Priority Baggage Handling. Benefits only apply when checking in with Air Canada, for a flight operated by Air Canada, Air Canada Rouge or under the Air Canada Express brand.

3 A Basic Cardmember or Supplementary Cardmember, and up to eight (8) other passengers traveling on the same reservation (up to a maximum of nine (9) travellers), are each entitled to Priority Airport Standby, and a higher priority for upgrade requests to a premium cabin. Priority airport standby and upgrade clearance are available on day of travel when travelling on a fare that allows for airport standby or upgrades, and upon satisfying applicable condition(s), such as payment of fees or use of upgrade instrument(s), such as eUpgrade credits. Benefit only applies for flights operated by Air Canada, Air Canada Rouge, or under the Air Canada Express brand. Priority on standby and upgrade lists is determined by several factors, including, but not limited to, holding Aeroplan EliteTM Status, an eligible Aeroplan credit card, and other rules as determined by Air Canada in its sole discretion and as may be changed by Air Canada from time to time. See www.aircanada.com/elite-termsandconditions for applicable Aeroplan Elite Status and eUpgrade conditions.
4 For every $5,000 in eligible purchases (less any returns, credits and adjustments) charged to the card and posted to the card account, Basic Cardmembers can get 1,000 Status Qualifying Credits (SQC), up to a combined maximum of 25,000 SQC per Aeroplan Member per calendar year for all SQC that may be awarded to that Aeroplan Member in connection with any Aeroplan credit card (including charge cards) held by that Aeroplan Member, regardless of card issuer (the “Annual Credit Card Maximum”).
SQC will be deposited to the Basic Cardmember’s Aeroplan Member account up to 1 week after meeting the spend threshold.
Supplementary Cardmember(s) are not eligible to receive SQC through this benefit; however, all eligible purchases by Supplementary Cardmembers will count towards the Basic Cardmember’s eligible purchases.
Basic Cardmembers may get SQC during an Aeroplan Elite Status qualification period. In the case of returns, credits or adjustments that reduce the amount of eligible purchases below a previously achieved threshold for which SQC was not previously awarded, you may not get the SQC, but, if you were awarded SQC, the amount deducted could result in you having negative eligible purchases and you will have to make purchases if you wanted to bring your eligible purchases to zero before getting your next SQC.
SQC are not redeemable towards Aeroplan rewards and only count towards Aeroplan Elite Status qualification. SQC cannot be exchanged and do not count towards Million Mile status.
Aeroplan reserves the right, at any time and at its sole discretion, to reverse, revoke or rescind SQC, Elite Status and associated benefits in the event of misuse of this benefit. The Annual Credit Card Maximum is tracked and maintained by Aeroplan.
All Aeroplan Elite Status conditions apply and can be reviewed at www.aircanada.com/elite-termsandconditions.
5 Starting January 1, 2027, Basic Cardmembers who hold Aeroplan 25K Status or higher will receive 10% of the total Status Qualifying Credits (SQC) accumulated by them in the prior calendar year (10% Head Start), with no limit on the number of SQC that can be granted under this 10% Head Start benefit.
To be eligible for the 10% Head Start, the Basic Cardmember must have been approved for the card account prior to December 15th of the prior calendar year. The card account must be linked to the Basic Cardmember’s own Aeroplan Account, and the Basic Cardmember must hold Aeroplan 25K Status or higher on February 15th of the current Elite year. In the event the card account is closed, regardless of the reason for closure, any SQC awarded in that current Elite year as a result of the 10% Head Start will be removed from the Aeroplan account. All Aeroplan Elite Status conditions apply. A maximum of one 10% Head Start will be awarded per Aeroplan Member per calendar year regardless of the number of Aeroplan card accounts held. SQC granted as a result of the 10% Head Start will be deposited directly into the Basic Cardmember’s Aeroplan account by no later than March 31st of any given year. Benefit is only available to Basic Cardmembers and does not apply to Supplementary Cardmembers.
SQC are not redeemable towards Aeroplan rewards and only count towards Aeroplan Elite Status qualification. SQC cannot be exchanged and do not count towards Million Mile status.
Aeroplan reserves the right, at any time and at its sole discretion, to reverse, revoke or rescind SQC, Elite Status and associated benefits in the event of misuse of this 10% Head Start benefit.
All Aeroplan Elite Status conditions apply and can be reviewed at www.aircanada.com/elite-termsandconditions
6 Extended eUpgrade Validity eUpgrade credits are valid for 12-months following the issuance date of the eUpgrade credits. New eUpgrade credits issued to the Aeroplan account of a Basic Premium Cardmember who also holds Aeroplan Elite StatusTM* (Aeroplan Elite 25K and above) will be valid for an additional 12 months, for a total of 24 months validity from issuance date. Unless otherwise specified, eUpgrade credits issued on a promotional or goodwill basis, as well as those already rolled over from a previous benefit year, are not eligible for this benefit. To qualify for an extra 12 months of eUpgrade validity, the Basic Premium Card must be open and linked to the member’s Aeroplan account and the member must hold Aeroplan Elite StatusTM* at the time the eUpgrade credit is issued. If the Premium Card is changed to a different product or the account is closed, regardless of reason for closure, or if the Basic Cardmember loses Aeroplan Elite StatusTM*, the expiry date of any eUpgrade credits issued after the date of Premium Card product change and/or loss of Aeroplan Elite StatusTM* will be issued with the standard 12-month eUpgrade validity. eUpgrade credits issued prior to Premium Card account linking will retain their original 12-month expiry date. After account closure or change of the Basic Premium Card to a different Card product, eUpgrade credits issued with a 24-month validity period will retain their original 24-month expiry date. Benefit is only available to Basic Cardmembers and does not apply to Supplementary Cardmembers. All eUpgrade conditions apply and can be reviewed at the Air Canada eUpgrade eligibility page (www.aircanada.com/eupgrade-termsandconditions).
7 Basic Cardmembers will receive one (1) Annual Companion Pass after spending more than $25,000 on net purchases (less any returns, credits, and adjustments) posted to the Basic Cardmember’s card account in the 12 months prior to their Card anniversary date. The pass will be deposited into the Aeroplan account 8-10 weeks after the Card anniversary date.
On each Card anniversary date, the calculation of the annual net purchases resets to zero and Basic Cardmembers must qualify again in the new annual period. Purchases transacted or posted on the Card anniversary date will be included in the calculation of net purchases for the next annual period and not the previous annual period.
The pass entitles a companion to accompany the Basic Cardmember upon the purchase of a fixed base fare (plus taxes, fees, charges and surcharges), when the Basic Cardmember books a published economy fare on a flight marketed and operated by Air Canada, Air Canada Rouge or under the Air Canada Express brand.
Valid against the purchase of one round-trip fixed based fare (plus taxes, fees, charges and surcharges) for a companion when travelling on the same itinerary and booked at the same time as the Basic Cardmember. Passes are valid for 12 months from the date issued. 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”).
Maximum of one companion pass may be used per booking. If one-way travel is booked, the full base fare will be charged, the pass will be deemed fully used and the return portion of travel will be forfeited.
Total pricing varies based on itinerary booked. Basic Cardmembers may use the pass only once on their choice of travel (i) within Canada and continental US (excluding Hawaii) for $99 CAD base fare (ii) to/from Hawaii, Mexico, Central America, and the Caribbean for $299 CAD base fare, (iii) to/from South America, Europe, Middle East, and Africa for $499 CAD base fare, and (iv) to/from Asia, Australia, and New Zealand for $599 CAD base fare.
In addition to the purchase of a fixed base fare, the companion will be responsible to pay all applicable taxes, fees, charges and surcharges that apply above the companion’s base fare. All travel must originate or terminate in Canada or the United States. Valid for travel at any time with no blackout periods. Also valid against the purchase of fares on sale.
The companion will be booked into the same fare brand as the Basic Cardmember and will receive all applicable benefits and services associated with that fare brand. The pass may not be used against the purchase of premium cabin fares, or in conjunction with Aeroplan flight rewards, Flight Pass, group travel bookings, Air Canada Vacations bookings, or any other discounts or promotion codes.
The pass must be redeemed at the time of purchase, and if multiple companion 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, but travel may occur after the pass expiry date subject to flight schedule availability at the time of booking.
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 companion pass being forfeited. If during a change or cancellation the pass 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, fees, charges and surcharges that apply above the base fare. The Basic Cardmember’s account must be and remain active (not cancelled) and in good standing in order to receive and retain the reward.
Companions who are members of Aeroplan or other partner frequent flyer programs are eligible to accumulate points and/or miles for the ticket issued in exchange for the companion pass according to conditions of the fare brand purchased.
Aeroplan Elite Status benefits and upgrades are applicable if the traveler holds appropriate status and the fare purchased allows.
Air Canada reserves the right to apply additional fees for bookings made via Air Canada Reservations. Unused passes will automatically be cancelled on the date the card account is cancelled, regardless of reason for cancellation, or if the card account is changed to a different product.
Air transportation services on Air Canada are subject to Air Canada’s General Conditions of Carriage & Tariffs (www.aircanada.com/conditionsofcarriage) at the time of booking.
8 From time to time, eligible Basic Aeroplan Cardmembers can get access to preferred pricing, which means they can book flight rewards for even fewer points. The number of points required to book a flight reward is determined by several factors, including, but not limited to, holding an eligible Aeroplan credit card and a member logging into their Aeroplan account, along with other rules as determined by Aeroplan in its sole discretion.
9 Basic Cardmember or eligible Supplementary Cardmember, and up to eight (8) other passengers traveling on the same reservation (up to a maximum of 9 travellers), are each entitled to a free first checked bag up to 23kg/50lbs. Benefit only applies when checking in with Air Canada, for a flight operated by Air Canada, Air Canada Rouge®* or under the Air Canada Express®* brand. Free first checked bag benefit is applicable only when the bag is checked in at the designated check-in counter, prior to security. Bags checked in at the gate are not eligible for this benefit. Benefit is not available if check-in is with another airline. If the first checked bag is already complimentary (for example, as a result of Aeroplan EliteTM* Status or fare purchased), there is no additional checked bag benefit that will be provided. Free first checked bag benefit may not be applied retroactively, and no refunds will be issued. Lap held infants do not qualify for First Free Checked Bag. Service charges for additional/oversized/overweight baggage may apply. For more information on baggage restrictions, please visit www.aircanada.com/baggage.
