RBC Avion Visa Infinite Card: Complete 2026 Review

The RBC Avion Visa Infinite Card is one of the most well-known travel cards in Canada. But is it really worth it in 2026, especially compared to competitors like the American Express Platinum Card and the Scotiabank Passport^™ Visa Infinite +* Card? Here’s a complete review to help you decide.

The RBC Avion Visa Infinite Card is designed for Canadian travelers who want to accumulate points flexibly and use them on any airline, without availability constraints.

1 This offer only applies to new applications for an RBC Avion Visa Infinite or RBC Avion Visa Platinum credit card (each, an “Eligible Credit Card”) received between “August 13, 2026” and “November 25, 2026” (“Offer Period”) and approved by Royal Bank of Canada (“Royal Bank”) subject to the conditions below. Additional cardholders(s) (co-applicant and authorized user(s)) on the Eligible Credit Card account, as well as existing cardholders on any RBC Royal Bank personal credit card account transferring to an Eligible Credit Card account during the Offer Period, are not eligible for the offer.

35,000 welcome Avion points (“Welcome Points”) will appear on your monthly credit card statement within sixty (60) days after your application has been approved, provided that your Eligible Credit Card account remains open and in good standing at the time the Welcome points are credited to your account, “good standing” meaning that your Eligible Credit Card account must not be past due for more than two (2) consecutive credit card account statement periods, closed, charged off or in credit revoked status.

You will receive 20,000 bonus Avion points (“Bonus Points”) if a total of $5,000 or more (“Qualifying Transaction Amount”) in qualifying net purchases and/or pre-authorized bill payment transactions (“Qualifying Transactions”) are posted to your Eligible Credit Card account within the first six (6) months from your Eligible Credit Card account opening date (“Period”). The Bonus Points will appear on your monthly credit card statement within sixty days (60) after you reach $5,000 in Qualifying Transactions, provided your Eligible Credit Card account remains open and in good standing at the time the Bonus Points are credited to your account.

Qualifying Transactions exclude cash advances (including balance transfers, cash-like transactions and bill payments that are not pre-authorized charges that you set up with a merchant), interest charges and fees. Credits for returns and adjustments posted to your Eligible Credit Card account during the Period will reduce the amount of your Qualifying Transactions. The Qualifying Transaction Amount is based on the transaction posting date of each Qualifying Transaction, not the transaction date. This means that transactions that take place prior to the last day of the Period will not be considered for the Qualifying Transaction Amount if they have not yet been posted or processed by the merchant, the payment network (Visa) or Royal Bank by the last day of the Period.

15,000 additional Avion points (“Anniversary Points”) will appear on your monthly credit card statement within twelve (12) to sixteen (16) weeks after the one- year anniversary of your account opening, provided that your Eligible Credit Card account remains open and in good standing at the time the Anniversary Points are credited to your account.

If you close or change your Eligible Credit Card Account for another type of RBC Royal Bank credit card before the Welcome Points, the Bonus Points and/or the Anniversary Points have been credited to your account, you may lose the benefit of this offer. This offer may not be combined or used in conjunction with any other offer. Royal Bank reserves the right to cancel, modify or withdraw this offer at any time without notice, even after your application has been approved, including if we suspect that you may be manipulating or abusing it, or engaging in any suspicious or fraudulent activity, as determined by Royal Bank in its sole discretion. For complete terms and conditions that apply to the Avion Rewards Program, please visit www.avionrewards.com or call 1-800-769-2512.

^Point redemptions for flights under the Air Travel Redemption Schedule start at 7,500 points for a short-haul one-way Economy Class flight priced at no more than $175 (and start at 15,000 points for a short-haul round-trip Economy Class flight priced at no more than $350). The traveller is responsible for all applicable taxes, administration fees and surcharges.

2 Avion points are earned on qualifying net purchases only; they are not earned on cash advances (including balance transfers, cash-like transactions and bill payments that are not pre-authorized charges that you set up with a merchant) interest charges or fees, and credits for returns and adjustments will reduce or cancel the points earned by the amounts originally charged.

12 You will earn 1.25 Avion points for every dollar spent when you use your RBC Avion Visa Infinite card to pay for travel-related purchases made at merchants classified by Visa’s “Merchant Category Code” (“MCC”) as “travel”, which may include: airlines, accommodations, tour operators, cruise lines, travel agencies and car rental companies. Even though some merchants may sell travel products/services, purchases made at these locations may not necessarily qualify for the 1.25 Avion points per dollar if the merchant is not classified with a “travel” MCC. Also, merchants that are not classified by a “travel” MCC may be located on the premises of merchants that are classified with a “travel” MCC, and purchases made at these locations may not qualify for this added benefit. For more details, please refer to the Avion Rewards Terms and Conditions at: https://www.avionrewards.com/terms-and-conditions/index.html

14 The term “redeem” means using your Be Well points to pay, or partially pay, for eligible purchases using your Be Well card at participating Rexall locations according to the instructions provided by the cashier, the point-of-sale terminal or any other payment processing device.

Be Well points you earn when you make a purchase cannot be redeemed immediately for that same purchase. They can only be redeemed for a future eligible purchase that must be made at least 12 hours after earning those Be Well points.

Annual Fees and Required Income

The RBC Avion Visa Infinite Card has an annual fee of $120 for the primary cardholder and $50 for each additional card. A minimum personal income of $60,000 (or household income of $100,000) is required to be eligible, which aligns with the standard criteria for a Visa Infinite card.

Welcome Bonus

The welcome bonus varies depending on promotional periods, but it generally represents attractive value to offset the first year’s fees. What truly distinguishes the RBC Avion Visa Infinite Card is the flexibility of its welcome bonus eligibility conditions. You can check the current offer on RBC Avion cards to find out the exact value of the current bonus.

Indeed, the American Express Platinum Card applies strict rules: one bonus per card, for life. For its part, the Scotiabank Passport^™ Visa Infinite +* Card requires a 24-month absence as a Scotia cardholder before being eligible again. In contrast, RBC adopts a much more generous approach. It’s possible to reapply for the card and receive the welcome bonus again, making it a particularly advantageous choice for those who want to accumulate many points quickly.

Points Earning Rate

The general earning rate of the RBC Avion Visa Infinite Card is comparable to that of its two main competitors. The card offers:

Regular purchases: 1 RBC Avion Rewards point per dollar spent on most purchases
Travel categories: 1.25 points per dollar spent on eligible travel categories

On its own, the card allows for good organic accumulation. However, it’s when combined with the RBC Ion+ Visa Card that the duo becomes truly formidable. The Ion+ offers high earning rates in everyday categories like groceries, restaurants, and transportation. Together, these two Visa cards maximize accumulation on virtually all spending. Moreover, because they’re Visa cards, they’re accepted everywhere, unlike American Express cards which still face refusals at some merchants in Quebec.

Additional cardholders (co-applicants and authorized users) of the RBC ION+ Visa card account, as well as current holders of any personal RBC Royal Bank credit card who switch to the RBC ION+ Visa card during the offer period, are not eligible for this offer.

7,000 Avion points (“Welcome Points”) will appear on your monthly credit card statement within sixty (60) days after your application has been approved, provided that your RBC ION+ Visa credit card account (“Credit Card Account”) remains open and in good standing at the time the Welcome points are credited to your account, “good standing” meaning that your Credit Card Account must not be past due for more than two (2) consecutive credit card account statement periods, closed, charged off or in credit revoked status.

Royal Bank reserves the right to cancel, modify, or withdraw this offer at any time without notice, even if your application has already been approved, including if we have reason to believe that you are manipulating or abusing the process, or engaging in suspicious or fraudulent activity, as determined by Royal Bank in its sole discretion.
