Air Canada Buy Aeroplan Miles Up To 85% Bonus Through May 20, 2022

Air Canada Aeroplan started to sell its miles for the first time in 2020 and has been quite active with them ever since (like most other airline and hotel loyalty programs).

The airline has launched another offer to buy miles at an 85% bonus when you purchase by May 20, 2022.

You can access this offer on Air Canada’s website here.

Note that Air Canada Aeroplan members can buy up to 1 million miles in a calendar year before any possible bonuses.

Bonus Table:

Price at an 85% bonus:

The price of a mile (USD) under this offer is 1.46 US cents each when you buy them at an 85% bonus. The sales in 2021, surprise, with an 80% bonus and earlier this year at a 100% bonus, had the exact same price of 1.36 US cents each.

Conclusion

Air Canada allows you to buy a significant number of miles at once. The price in USD per mile is very reasonable, considering the breadth of partners and availability to book all of them online without having to call.

I would, however, wait for a 100% bonus sale that will return in due course unless you need some now for an award.
