Buying Air Canada Aeroplan points

[MG1]

This may be slightly off-topic but thought that it didn't warrant its own thread: I'm unable to see my expiry when I log in: is it two years after last activity with all points expiring at the same time?

Also, as it nears expiry, can you use the points for future travel (i.e. post-expiry date) as long as no changes are required?

Yeah, two years on inactivity = expiry of all points. So it’s not rolling like SQ.

you can book future travel, i don’t see why changes wouldn’t be allowed as long as it didn’t involve a refund of points. Don’t know what happens if you were due a points refund.

Pretty sure they've paused any expiry until 30 Nov 2026 as per link below - correct me if wrong.

Thanks @MEL_Traveller and @flyguy77 for the confirmation. I had activity in 2025, so that means that I should have until 2027 to use the points (for flights up to 2028). I'll try to use them sooner than then though.
