Flexible dates are often the first tip to redeeming your Aeroplan points at the best price<\/a>. If you have fixed travel dates, you may pay more points for your ticket, especially during peak periods such as school vacations and public holidays. On the other hand, being flexible with your dates can help you find lower fares on points, as airlines tend to offer reduced fares for less popular flights. Consider travelling mid-week rather than on weekends or going in low season to save points while enjoying a more pleasant, less crowded travel experience.<\/p>\n

To get the best prices on points, we recommend booking in advance<\/a>, sometimes up to a year in advance. However, last-minute availability can also be found at a good price<\/a>, especially a few weeks before busy periods (e.g., Labor Day, for which availability may appear in the third or fourth week of August).<\/p>\n

Be aware of the list of Air Canada’s partner airlines on Aeroplan” el_id=”2_be_aware_of_the_list_of_air_canada_s_partner_airlines_on_aeroplan”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Aeroplan isn’t just for Air Canada. You have access to award tickets offered by all Star Alliance airlines<\/strong>, such as United<\/a> or Lufthansa<\/a>, as well as several other partners, such as Etihad<\/a> or Oman Air<\/a>. The big advantage of booking with partner carriers is that the price will be fixed; in fact, points prices on Air Canada flights are dynamic, as are cash tickets. Therefore, one tip for redeeming your Aeroplan points is to target these partner carriers, as they may be a better option for using your points.<\/p>\n
