Buying Air Canada Aeroplan points

[Brissy1]

Nothing for me

I'm not biting for 80%.

I am. Have been offered 100% but only need 75% bonus for the amount I want.

Checked the value proposition.

Air Mauritius PER-MRU direct return, business, cash cost about A$6,200. Aeroplan, 120,000 miles + A$270 , which on the present offer can be bought for A$2,766. So about 1/2 price.

(I already have those miles, but want to have a stock for later.)

Need to warn you about MK...they don't have enough planes and often there are last minute cancellations and significant delays! They said they will pay for a hotel night and dinner when our evening flight from Mru to Per was delayed til the next morning. Took 3+ months of chasing them to finally get reimbursed!

@Myrna can also attest to their delays

Need to warn you about MK..

Thanks for the reminder! I shall book accordingly. Been trying to book for the past year, but other trips keep cropping up!

Only 80% here. I wonder how they determine which bonus to offer to people.

I'm not biting for 80%.

I seemed to have 80% the first time I checked but now showing 100%. I don't know why but worth checking again.

With TG announcing resumption of AKL flights we might see increased availability of awards, albeit from across the city through to Asia

Are you referring to TG? They have pretty good availability to/from MEL in J the next few months

Both of ours got 100%

Only 85% here.

"The Australian Dollar is currently a little weaker against the Canadian Dollar,"
No. The Australian dollar has revalued about 5% against the Canadian dollar since November.

There seems to be good availability for long haul flights, but only on Air India, and I have no interest in travelling on Air India in any class.
