I’ve been loyal to Aeroplan for several years now! They recently invited me to their press day in Toronto so I could learn more about their brand and what they have to offer so I could share it with you all. I want to start of my saying that loyal program loyalty has great benefits. As a frequent flyer I find it so convenient to conduct all my travel with the same partners and airlines.
As I arrived in Toronto via Air Canada I was immediately treated to the Aeroplan experience. My ticket was booked on Aeroplan points with Air Canada and I was given an American Express gift card for my travel expenses (partner of Aeroplan)
The location was fully transformed into an Aeroplan partner lounge with gifts and information about all of their initiatives. I learned so much about the program and all extra benefits and perks I could receive as an Aeroplan member.
The first thing I suggest you to do is download the Aeroplan app if you are a member. You can keep track of all your points and status and check out Aeroplan partners all at one touch.
Some quick facts about the program that I find interesting.
