Case Study: Business Class to Asia on Points for Christmas

Christmas is a busy, and expensive, time to travel. But by strategically using frequent flyer points, I managed to book cheap business class flights to Asia for myself and my family. Here’s how I did it - and how you can too.

Excellent article, thanks Stephanie. I haven't had much luck buying Aeroplan points for here in Oz.
I joined up easily and the purchase of points went through but was then reversed.
My points balance was 0 to start. I'm guessing they like you to have taken a flight with them before being eligible to buy points?

Zero balance is fine for aeroplan.

When you say the purchase went through but was the. reversed… the points went into your account and then came out again? Or there was an authorisation on your credit card which then dropped off?
