50000 Bonus Aeroplan points with new HSBC Star Alliance Card

Yes… aeroplan status is the remainder of the calendar year you qualify, plus the calendar year after. So if you qualify in Jan 2026, you’ll have until december 2026 (plus the grace period until 31 Jan 2028).

Hey @MEL_Traveller - just about to select my status airline, and was wondering if you would have the official SA link that explains this Aeroplan two-year status. I am pretty sure I saw the link somewhere a few months back, but unfortunately cannot find it anymore!

It’s not a star alliance link. It’s aeroplan’s own rules and qualification cycle.

It works the same way as qantas, once you attain status you keep it for the rest of the year you’re in, and the year after.

Although Aeroplan works on calendar years rather than individual months.

How long after meeting spend and nominating aeroplane does one receive status ?
