Air Canada?

[ffhound]

Hi all

Is it possible to book Air Canada flights with Qantas points? if so are there fuel surcharges?

I checked a few routes but could see no sign of Air Canada on the booking engine. Also, I had heard that Qantas was entering into an arrangement with Air Canada to codeshare but again have not seen any sign of points redemption for this airline.

Thanks Peter

I think you may have QF confused with VA here

Indeed.

In any case, it's not possible to book Air Canada flights with Qantas points nor Velocity points.

Is that likely to change in the near future?

Almost certainly not.

Or you’ve confused Air Canada with Westjet

Qantas has a partnership with WestJet. They aren't going to form anything beyond simple interlining (which they have with most airlines) while they maintain a codeshare deal with WestJet.

Actually you can both earn and redeem QF points on Westjet (WS) flights. Details here:

WestJet | Airline Partners | Qantas Frequent Flyer

I never said you couldn't.
OP is asking about Air Canada. I, and others, have stated that Qantas has no partnership with AC, the Canadian airline they partner with is Westjet.

Apologies, I mis-read your message as talking about Westjet only being interline. Sorry for the confusion
