[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text el_class=”checkmarks”]The Northern Lights are very active in the skies over our Great Canadian North in September, October, February and March. They last from a few seconds to 45 minutes and their colours vary.<\/p>\n

Although they can be seen a few nights a year in southern Quebec, they are said to dance in the skies over Kuujjuaq every night between 10:00 pm and 3:00 am. Unless the weather plays havoc.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading el_id=”getting_to_kuujjuak” text=”Getting to Kuujjuak” google_fonts=””][vc_column_text el_class=”checkmarks”]Here’s an Aeroplan points optimization I haven’t seen in a long time. ALL round-trip flights between Montreal and Kuujjuaq are priced at 20,000 Aeroplan points and $95.62 in taxes<\/strong>. This is the case 12 months a year since the implementation of the new Aeroplan program, which operates by zones and distances.<\/p>\n

Flights are operated by Canadian North<\/strong> airline. You can book them directly on Aeroplan since last year<\/a>.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”168474″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_shadow”][vc_column_text el_class=”checkmarks”]Do you know how much money a ticket to Kuujjuaq costs? No kidding. $2,780<\/strong>. Same company, same hours in direct flights.<\/p>\n

Ticket to Kuujjuaq 10:00 – 12:20 for a 2h20 hour non-stop flight.<\/p>\n

Return to Montreal 14:50 – 17:15 in 2h25 hours non-stop.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”168388″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_shadow”][vc_column_text el_class=”checkmarks”]Value: ($2780 – $95.62) \/ 20,000 points = 13 cents per Aeroplan point<\/strong>!<\/p>\n

And what is great is that these Aeroplan points were earned almost free of charge<\/strong> from one of the many Aeroplan credit card offerings currently available.<\/a>[\/vc_column_text]

Yes, we can. Since July 26, Nunavik has reopened its doors. But you know how it is. So make sure you can change your Aeroplan ticket at no charge<\/a>. In case there’s a new wave…<\/p>\n
