Your article is about Aeroplan so I assume you are speaking to a Canadian audience but the details of the Amex Plat/Gold cards you listed are for US customers not Canadian customers…

Hi Uptowngirl! We’re actually a U.S. based website and as such, publish content with suggestions for a U.S. audience. As you can see from many of the other articles on our site, just because we’re U.S. based that doesn’t limit us to reviewing only U.S. airlines and loyalty programs. We post earning/redeeming/booking guides for most of the popular international airlines as well as general travel-related content.
We hope one day to be able to branch out to credit card suggestions for those living outside of the U.S. but while we’re still small, the U.S. is where our focus will lie for the time being! Thanks for writing in!

Hi Uptowngirl,
While our website is based out of the US, the audience for this article is anyone that can benefit from the use of Aeroplan miles. Air Canada services customers in over 50 countries worldwide. Additionally, Aeroplan miles can also be used to purchase award flights with a large number of their airline partners around the world.

We opened two accounts at Air Canada on that date and asked to add the miles of those flights to our accounts. Now we are flying again and thought to use them but found out that we do not have any miles in our accounts, but we do not know why.
Can you add those miles into our accounts and explain us how to use them? Thank you.

Hi David,
Please be advised that we are not, and have no affiliation with, Air Canada. We are Upgraded Points, a website that provides educational resources to help people travel with points and miles.
In order to receive assistance with your Aeroplan account, you’ll need to contact the Air Canada customer service line at 1-(800) 361-5373. I hope you’re able to get the matter resolved!

Do any grocery stores or gas stations give aeroplan miles in Calgary, Okotoks or High River AB?

Hi Betty,
Based on the partners’ section on the Aeroplan website for gas stations and grocery stores, it seems that there are no such offers.
Thanks for reading!

Is the 2 cents per point mentioned in CDN or USD, an can 40% of the ticket points be purchased as was thought previously?

Hi Chris,
The 2 cents per point mentioned in USD, and yes you should be able to purchase 40% of the ticket points.

What stores in the Lower Mainland of BC award Aeroplan points for point of sale purchases?

Hi Elaine,
Air Canada does not appear to publish that information on its website. However, you can see all of the stores offered on the Air Canada eStore.
