In practice, it&#8217;s more realistic to find this type of trip for as little as 25,000 points, which is still a very good price for crossing the country comfortably. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2268\">With the <a href=\"https:\/\/milesopedia.com\/en\/credit-cards\/american-express-aeroplan-reserve-card\/\">American Express<sup>&reg;<\/sup> Aeroplan<sup>&reg;<\/sup>* Reserve Card <\/a>welcome bonus, you can earn enough points for two round-trip business class tickets within North America.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2269\">[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;448073&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; style=&#8221;vc_box_shadow&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2270\"><a href=\"https:\/\/milesopedia.com\/en\/guide\/tutorials\/choose-your-aircraft-element-consider\/\">Not all business class flights are created equal<\/a>. On single-aisle aircraft (such as Airbus A220s or Boeing 737s), the business cabin features wide reclining seats, with more space and better service than economy class, but no flatbed. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2271\">The true sweet spot occurs when Air Canada deploys a wide-body aircraft on North American routes. Certain flights between major cities (such as Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal, or even <a href=\"https:\/\/milesopedia.com\/en\/guide\/destination\/los-angeles-ultimate-travel-guide\/\">Los Angeles<\/a>) are sometimes operated by Boeing 777s, Boeing 787s, or Airbus A330s.

If you see a 1-2-1 configuration or individual seats that can be converted into beds, you&#8217;re on a wide-body aircraft, this is where your Aeroplan points truly shine. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2275\">[\/vc_message]<div class=\"wpb_content_element wpb_miles_element\">\t\t<div\n\t\t\t\tdata-template='s-h'\n\t\t\t\tdata-post_type='post'\n\t\t\t\tdata-per_page='4'\n\t\t\t\tclass='deferred_container--preload container_post container_template--s-h container_count--1'\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-tag=\"post_id\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-post_ids=\"230304\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t<article class=\"post-preview\">\n\t<div class=\"post-preview-thumbnail\">\n\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-image\"><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"post-preview-content\">\n\t\t<div class=\"simmer-bar-group\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/article>\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading el_id=&#8221;-1&#8243; text=&#8221;Business class &#8211; Europe starting at 60,000 Aeroplan points&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221; el_id=&#8221;business_class_-_europe_starting_at_60_000_aeroplan_points&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2276\">Europe presents one of the best value regions to use your Aeroplan points, especially when departing from major eastern Canadian airports like Montreal or Toronto.

Unlike Air Canada flights, which use dynamic pricing (the points price can vary considerably according to demand), flights with partners such as SWISS, TAP or Turkish are always offered at the same points fare, as long as a seat is available. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2284\">A single subscription to the <a title=\"American Express<sup>&reg;<\/sup> Aeroplan<sup>&reg;<\/sup>* Reserve Card\" href=\"https:\/\/milesopedia.com\/en\/go\/amex-aeroplan-reserve\/\" rel=\"noindex\">American Express<sup>&reg;<\/sup> Aeroplan<sup>&reg;<\/sup>* Reserve Card<\/a> can cover a round trip in business class to Europe.

The essence of Japanese refinement is also reflected in the onboard meals, which are always elegantly presented and include both local gourmet and Western options. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2292\">[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"wpb_content_element wpb_miles_element\">\t\t<div\n\t\t\t\tdata-template='s'\n\t\t\t\tdata-post_type='post'\n\t\t\t\tdata-per_page='4'\n\t\t\t\tclass='deferred_container--preload container_post container_template--s container_count--2'\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-tag=\"post_id\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-post_ids=\"272339,70818\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t<article class=\"post-preview\">\n\t<div class=\"post-preview-thumbnail\">\n\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-image\"><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"post-preview-content\">\n\t\t<div class=\"simmer-bar-group\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/article><article class=\"post-preview\">\n\t<div class=\"post-preview-thumbnail\">\n\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-image\"><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"post-preview-content\">\n\t\t<div class=\"simmer-bar-group\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/article>\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>[vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2293\">This fare of 55,000 points is particularly appealing because it is fixed, without variation, as the flight is operated by an Aeroplan partner carrier. It allows travelers from Western Canada to fly to Japan in optimal conditions without having to spend an astronomical amount of points. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2294\">However, these ANA business class flights are generally not available via the Aeroplan website. You have to use a little trick: search for availability on <a href=\"https:\/\/milesopedia.com\/en\/reviews\/products\/roame\/\">Roame<\/a> by selecting the United Mileage Plus program, where ANA shares its award seats with its Star Alliance partners. Once you&#8217;ve located an available business class flight, simply call the Aeroplan contact center to make the reservation. It&#8217;s a bit more work, but well worth it.   <\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2295\">This flight, which costs 110,000 United Mileage miles, can be booked with just 55,000 Aeroplan points.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2296\">[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;448081&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; style=&#8221;vc_box_shadow&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2297\">An interesting alternative, particularly during the summer, is Air Canada&#8217;s direct flight between Vancouver and Osaka, offered from May to October. This seasonal flight may be a good option for those with <a href=\"https:\/\/milesopedia.com\/en\/guide\/tutorials\/air-canada-aeroplan-elite-status\/\"> Aeroplan Elite status<\/a>, since the business cabin is accessible using <a href=\"https:\/\/milesopedia.com\/en\/guide\/tutorials\/aeroplan-eupgrades-business-class\/\">eUpgrades <\/a>especially if you book a Latitude ticket with points or cash.

You can also fly via other European hubs, such as Zurich with SWISS, Vienna with Austrian Airlines or Munich with Lufthansa. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2302\">This sweetspot is particularly valuable as business class tickets to India are rarely cheap when paying cash. Even economy class tickets can be quite expensive! By using your points, you get exceptional value while enjoying a pleasant and relaxing journey.

A basic flight from Canada to <a href=\"https:\/\/milesopedia.com\/en\/guide\/strategy\/aeroplan-asia\/\">Southeast Asia<\/a> costs 87,500 Aeroplan points. This is already a very attractive fare to fly this far in business class.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2305\">[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;448069&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; style=&#8221;vc_box_shadow&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2306\">However, you can also build a multi-continent itinerary for as little as 92,500 Aeroplan points (<a href=\"https:\/\/milesopedia.com\/en\/guides\/tutoriels\/aeroplan-stoptover-ultimate-guide\/\">including the price of the stopover<\/a>) one-way in business class.

So, if you want to visit Switzerland (or any other destination in Europe) as well as Southeast Asia, combining these two trips is optimal for your (points) wallet. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2309\">Example of possible itineraries:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"ai-optimize-2310\">Montreal &#8211; Zurich &#8211; Bangkok (with SWISS and Thai Airways)<\/li>\n<li class=\"ai-optimize-2311\">Montreal &#8211; Istanbul &#8211; Singapore (with Turkish Airlines)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2312\">These routes, operated entirely by fixed partner carriers, remain under the 11,000-mile total distance threshold.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2313\">Even more impressive: it&#8217;s possible to visit the Maldives without paying the big bucks. In fact, a one-way ticket from Canada to Mal\u00e9 normally costs 110,000 points if booked as your final destination, in business class since you live in the Atlantic zone. But by designating Singapore as your main destination (Pacific zone) and Mal\u00e9 as your stopover, you can create an itinerary like Montreal &#8211; Istanbul &#8211; Mal\u00e9 &#8211; Singapore, all for just 87,500 points + 5,000 points for the stopover.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2314\">It&#8217;s an excellent way to maximize your points and enjoy two totally different experiences: the seaside luxury of the Maldives and the urban dynamism of <a href=\"https:\/\/milesopedia.com\/en\/guide\/destination\/travel-guide-singapore\/\">Singapore<\/a>. The latter is also an excellent gateway to Southeast Asia, with numerous low-cost connections to popular destinations such as Bangkok, <a href=\"https:\/\/milesopedia.com\/en\/guide\/destination\/bali-travel-guide\/\">Bali<\/a>, Kuala Lumpur, etc. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2315\">Another advantage: as Singapore is located in the Pacific zone of the Aeroplan chart, distances from Canada often fall into a more economical bracket than routes to other Asian cities. This not only allows you to make an optimized stopover, but also to save points while travelling far. Indeed, there are many low-cost airlines serving the region from the Singapore hub.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2316\">These distant destinations become more easily accessible thanks to maps like the <a title=\"American Express<sup>&reg;<\/sup> Aeroplan<sup>&reg;<\/sup>* Business Reserve Card\" href=\"https:\/\/milesopedia.com\/en\/go\/amex-aeroplan-business-reserve\/\" rel=\"noindex\">American Express<sup>&reg;<\/sup> Aeroplan<sup>&reg;<\/sup>* Business Reserve Card<\/a>, which can give you a significant boost to reach 92,500 points in no time.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2317\">[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"wpb_content_element wpb_miles_element\">\t\t<div\n\t\t\t\tdata-template='compare'\n\t\t\t\tdata-post_type='card'\n\t\t\t\tdata-per_page='4'\n\t\t\t\tclass='deferred_container--preload container_card container_template--compare container_count--1'\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-tag=\"card_id\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-post_ids=\"108767\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-utm=\"wpb\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\n<div class=\"card card-list\">\n\n\t<div class=\"card-list--grid\">\n\n\t\t<div class=\"card-list--card\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"card-graphic-cta shimmer shimmer-card\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<div class=\"card-list--title-offer\">\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"card--title\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"card-list--offer\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"card--apply\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-btn\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading el_id=&#8221;-5&#8243; text=&#8221;Business class &#8211; Intra-Asia flights&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h3|text_align:left&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221; el_id=&#8221;business_class_-_intra-asia_flights&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2318\">In addition to transcontinental long-haul routes, Aeroplan also offers excellent opportunities on regional flights in Asia, which are often underestimated. Although these routes are shorter, they offer the comfort of business class at a very attractive cost in points. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2319\">Here are some examples:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"ai-optimize-2320\">Singapore &#8211; Taipei (Singapore Airlines or EVA Air): 30,000 points<\/li>\n<li class=\"ai-optimize-2321\">Bangkok &#8211; Tokyo (ANA or Thai Airways): 45,000 points<\/li>\n<li class=\"ai-optimize-2322\">Singapore &#8211; Tokyo (ANA or Singapore Airlines): 45,000 points<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2323\">These routes offer a premium experience on flights longer than 5 hours.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2324\">[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;448083&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; style=&#8221;vc_box_shadow&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2325\">These flights are perfect to incorporate into a multi-destination itinerary for exploring several Asian regions with an <a href=\"https:\/\/milesopedia.com\/en\/guides\/tutoriels\/aeroplan-stoptover-ultimate-guide\/\">Aeroplan stopover<\/a>. For example, an itinerary including Seoul, Tokyo, Bangkok, and Singapore can be crafted with low-cost individual segments, all while staying in business class. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2326\">[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading el_id=&#8221;-6&#8243; text=&#8221;Business class &#8211; East or Southern Africa from 90,000 Aeroplan points&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221; el_id=&#8221;business_class_-_east_or_southern_africa_from_90_000_aeroplan_points&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221; el_class=&#8221;checkmarks&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2327\"><a href=\"https:\/\/milesopedia.com\/en\/guide\/destination\/guide-itinerary-south-africa\/\">South Africa<\/a>, Kenya, Ethiopia and Namibia are dream destinations for travellers looking for adventure, <a href=\"https:\/\/milesopedia.com\/en\/guide\/destination\/safari-in-africa\/\">wildlife<\/a> and ancient cultures. But these destinations are often among the most expensive to reach, especially in business class. While the <a href=\"https:\/\/milesopedia.com\/en\/guide\/strategy\/maghreb-points\/\">Maghreb<\/a> and North Africa are more affordable, destinations further south can be very expensive. This is where Aeroplan becomes an indispensable part of our strategy: it&#8217;s possible to reach many parts of <a href=\"https:\/\/milesopedia.com\/en\/guide\/strategy\/africa-rewards-points\/\">Africa<\/a> in optimum comfort from as little as 90,000 points, by choosing the right routes and partner carriers.   <\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2328\">Examples of business class sweetspots to Africa:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"ai-optimize-2329\">Toronto &#8211; Addis Ababa: 90,000 points<\/li>\n<li class=\"ai-optimize-2330\">Montreal &#8211; Munich &#8211; Nairobi: 90,000 points<\/li>\n<li class=\"ai-optimize-2331\">Montreal &#8211; Zurich &#8211; Johannesburg: 110,000 points<\/li>\n<li class=\"ai-optimize-2332\">Montreal &#8211; Munich &#8211; Cape Town: 110,000 points<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2333\">[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;447392&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; style=&#8221;vc_box_shadow&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2334\">What makes these tickets even more attractive is Aeroplan&#8217;s pricing logic: Africa is classified in the Atlantic zone of its award chart.

These are very long journeys with few direct flights from Canada, making business class seats highly coveted, especially when they are available at a fixed rate. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2337\">With Aeroplan, it is possible to book tickets to Sydney or Auckland in business class from as little as 75,000 points from the West Coast of Canada, including Vancouver. These routes fall within the 5,001 to 7,500 mile range, which corresponds to the lowest fixed rate in Aeroplan\u2019s chart for long-haul flights with partners. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2338\">Examples of itineraries:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"ai-optimize-2339\">Vancouver &#8211; Auckland with Air New Zealand<\/li>\n<li class=\"ai-optimize-2340\">Vancouver &#8211; Los Angeles &#8211; Sydney with Air Canada and United Airlines<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2341\">[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;448077&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; style=&#8221;vc_box_shadow&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2342\">However, you need to be careful, as United also applies dynamic pricing on its points seats, which can make the price rise unpredictably.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2343\">To maximize your chances, it&#8217;s advisable to use specialized tools such as <a href=\"https:\/\/milesopedia.com\/en\/reviews\/products\/roame\/\">Roame<\/a> to track open availability with partners such as Air New Zealand, whose business class seats are rare but not impossible to find. Patience and flexibility, including traveling on weekdays or targeting off-peak periods, are essential strategies. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2344\">Another important point: keep to the total distance of the trip. If your itinerary exceeds 7,500 miles, the rate climbs to 87,500 points, which is still reasonable for the distance covered, but puts you one step further up the scale. Sometimes it&#8217;s better to opt for a more direct route, even with a long stopover, than to accumulate too many segments and blow up the distance.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2345\">[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"wpb_content_element wpb_miles_element\">\t\t<div\n\t\t\t\tdata-template='s-h'\n\t\t\t\tdata-post_type='post'\n\t\t\t\tdata-per_page='4'\n\t\t\t\tclass='deferred_container--preload container_post container_template--s-h container_count--1'\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-tag=\"post_id\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-post_ids=\"239222\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t<article class=\"post-preview\">\n\t<div class=\"post-preview-thumbnail\">\n\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-image\"><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"post-preview-content\">\n\t\t<div class=\"simmer-bar-group\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/article>\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading el_id=&#8221;-8&#8243; text=&#8221;Business class &#8211; Regional flights between Oceania and Asia&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h3|text_align:left&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221; el_id=&#8221;business_class_-_regional_flights_between_oceania_and_asia&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221; el_class=&#8221;checkmarks&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2346\">Flights between Asia and Oceania also offer excellent optimization opportunities with Aeroplan. These inter-regional routes cover long distances (often more than 8-9 flight hours) while remaining within very accessible point ranges. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2347\">Here are a few sample itineraries:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"ai-optimize-2348\">Sydney &#8211; Bangkok (Thai Airways or Singapore Airlines): 45,000 points<\/li>\n<li class=\"ai-optimize-2349\">Brisbane &#8211; Singapore (Singapore Airlines): 45,000 points<\/li>\n<li class=\"ai-optimize-2350\">Auckland &#8211; Tokyo (ANA or Air New Zealand): 60,000 points<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2351\">[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;448089&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; style=&#8221;vc_box_shadow&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2352\">These flights are often overlooked, but they&#8217;re very important connections to know about, because we&#8217;re talking about quite a long flight after all. They&#8217;re particularly useful for linking a trip to Asia with a getaway to Oceania, or as segments of a round-the-world itinerary. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2353\">[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"wpb_content_element wpb_miles_element\">\t\t<div\n\t\t\t\tdata-template='s-h'\n\t\t\t\tdata-post_type='post'\n\t\t\t\tdata-per_page='4'\n\t\t\t\tclass='deferred_container--preload container_post container_template--s-h container_count--1'\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-tag=\"post_id\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-post_ids=\"151978\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t<article class=\"post-preview\">\n\t<div class=\"post-preview-thumbnail\">\n\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-image\"><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"post-preview-content\">\n\t\t<div class=\"simmer-bar-group\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/article>\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading el_id=&#8221;-9&#8243; text=&#8221;Business class &#8211; Middle East from 90,000 Aeroplan points&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221; el_id=&#8221;business_class_-_middle_east_from_90_000_aeroplan_points&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2354\">The Middle East is attracting more and more travellers, whether for a stopover in <a href=\"https:\/\/milesopedia.com\/en\/guide\/destination\/must-see-activities\/\">Dubai<\/a> or to explore the cultural treasures of <a href=\"https:\/\/milesopedia.com\/en\/guide\/destination\/abu-dhabi-visits-must-sees\/\">Abu Dhabi<\/a>, Muscat or Doha. While these destinations often conjure up images of luxury, the cost of business class tickets can quickly escalate, unless you use your Aeroplan points wisely. From Eastern Canada, you can book a business class flight to the Middle East for as little as 90,000 points one-way.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2355\">The key is to take advantage of Star Alliance partners, in particular Turkish Airlines or Lufthansa Group carriers (Lufthansa, SWISS, Austrian Airlines), which efficiently serve this region with an abundance of possible connections in Europe. For example, a typical itinerary such as Montreal &#8211; Munich &#8211; Muscat or Montreal &#8211; Istanbul &#8211; Abu Dhabi fits perfectly into Aeroplan&#8217;s 90,000-point fixed fare grid, as long as the journey remains under 8,000 miles. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2356\">[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;448075&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; style=&#8221;vc_box_shadow&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2357\">Aeroplan also allows you to book flights with Etihad Airways, a highly popular partner. Although Etihad is now also subject to dynamic pricing, it&#8217;s still possible to find reasonable prices, especially if you&#8217;re flexible about your dates. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2358\">To maximize your chances of stumbling across good availability, tools like <a title=\"Roame\" href=\"https:\/\/milesopedia.com\/en\/go\/roame\/\" rel=\"noindex\">Roame<\/a> can help you create alerts and monitor premium seat openings.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2359\">[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"wpb_content_element wpb_miles_element\">\t\t<div\n\t\t\t\tdata-template='s'\n\t\t\t\tdata-post_type='post'\n\t\t\t\tdata-per_page='4'\n\t\t\t\tclass='deferred_container--preload container_post container_template--s container_count--4'\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-tag=\"post_id\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-post_ids=\"434307,280762,163573,419739\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t<article class=\"post-preview\">\n\t<div class=\"post-preview-thumbnail\">\n\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-image\"><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"post-preview-content\">\n\t\t<div class=\"simmer-bar-group\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/article><article class=\"post-preview\">\n\t<div class=\"post-preview-thumbnail\">\n\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-image\"><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"post-preview-content\">\n\t\t<div class=\"simmer-bar-group\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/article><article class=\"post-preview\">\n\t<div class=\"post-preview-thumbnail\">\n\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-image\"><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"post-preview-content\">\n\t\t<div class=\"simmer-bar-group\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/article><article class=\"post-preview\">\n\t<div class=\"post-preview-thumbnail\">\n\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-image\"><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"post-preview-content\">\n\t\t<div class=\"simmer-bar-group\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/article>\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading el_id=&#8221;-10&#8243; text=&#8221;Business class &#8211; South America from 50,000 Aeroplan points&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221; el_id=&#8221;business_class_-_south_america_from_50_000_aeroplan_points&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2360\">South America evokes spectacular landscapes, vibrant culture and cities rich in history.

Firstly, the value obtained per point is exceptional.

Analysis of results: Roame will show you the available flights, the operating airline, the number of award seats, and an estimate of taxes and surcharges.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2401\">In most cases, Aeroplan results are sufficient. However, some partners like ANA may not always display on Aeroplan, even though they are visible on MileagePlus.

Book with Aeroplan: Once you&#8217;ve located a flight, even if it only appears via MileagePlus, try to find it on the Air Canada website.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2406\">If it is not visible, contact the Aeroplan call center with full details (date, itinerary, flight number).

You\u2019ll often get much better value for your points by doing so, as partner airlines typically provide more predictable and potentially more economical redemption options. <\/li>\n<li class=\"ai-optimize-2413\">Add a stopover: Take advantage of the possibility of including a stopover of up to 45 days for just 5,000 extra points. A great way to explore a second destination on the same ticket. <\/li>\n<li class=\"ai-optimize-2414\">Target beneficial distance brackets: Look for long-haul routes that remain just below a pricing threshold, according to the Aeroplan scale. This can result in savings of several thousand points. <\/li>\n<li class=\"ai-optimize-2415\">Combine with eUpgrades: If you have Aeroplan Elite status, consider using your eUpgrade credits with \u201cLatitude + eUpgrade\u201d pricing to access business class at a lower cost.<\/li>\n<li class=\"ai-optimize-2416\">Use the right tools: Consult tools such as <a title=\"Roame\" href=\"https:\/\/milesopedia.com\/en\/go\/roame\/\" rel=\"noindex\">Roame<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/milesopedia.com\/en\/guide\/tutorials\/flightconnections\/\">Flight Connections<\/a>, GCMAP, and the Aeroplan bonus chart to plan your itineraries optimally.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2417\">[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"wpb_content_element wpb_miles_element\">\t\t<div\n\t\t\t\tdata-template='s'\n\t\t\t\tdata-post_type='post'\n\t\t\t\tdata-per_page='4'\n\t\t\t\tclass='deferred_container--preload container_post container_template--s container_count--2'\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-tag=\"post_id\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-post_ids=\"357754,358400\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t<article class=\"post-preview\">\n\t<div class=\"post-preview-thumbnail\">\n\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-image\"><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"post-preview-content\">\n\t\t<div class=\"simmer-bar-group\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/article><article class=\"post-preview\">\n\t<div class=\"post-preview-thumbnail\">\n\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-image\"><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"post-preview-content\">\n\t\t<div class=\"simmer-bar-group\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/article>\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading el_id=&#8221;-15&#8243; text=&#8221;Bottom Line&#8221; el_id=&#8221;bottom_line&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-2418\">Travelling in business class with your Aeroplan points is not only possible, it&#8217;s one of the best ways to get maximum value from your rewards.
