Aeroplan: Extra 35% Bonus Miles Conversion Promotion (July 17 - Aug 21)

Aeroplan is having a bonus miles conversion promotion!

Get an extra 35% more miles when you convert your hotel points to Aeroplan Miles.

This is Aeroplan’s richest conversion offer ever.

Qualifying hotel partners include:

  • Starwood Preferred Guest (SPG)
  • Marriott Rewards
  • Hilton Honors
  • Club Carlson
  • Best Western Hotels & Resorts
  • Wyndham Rewards
  • Coast Hotels
  • Choice Hotels
  • Le Club Acccor Hotels
  • Shangri-La Hotels and Resorts

If you have hotel points that you’re not using, it’s a good idea to convert them to Aeroplan Miles and get an extra 35% miles boost.

This is a good promotion and still worth doing even though Air Canada will server ties with Aeroplan in 2020. You still have 3 years to use the points. I’ll be taking advantage of this offer and will be converting a bunch of points.

Bonus offer valid only on conversions received from eligible hotel partner loyalty programs points into Aeroplan Miles made between July 17 and August 21, 2017 (11:59 EDT). Bonus Aeroplan Miles will be issued by Aeroplan as follows: once the total Aeroplan Miles are earned by exchanging points from any combination of eligible partner programs during the promotion, the bonus miles deposited will represent 35% of the total miles earned from the exchange, BONUS MILE CREDITING: Bonus Aeroplan Miles may take up to 4‑6 weeks to be credited after the promotional offer end date of August 21, 2017.

While the conversion of Membership Rewards® points from American Express Card members accounts into Aeroplan Miles is still possible, it is not eligible for this bonus miles promotion.

Although eligible CIBC Aventura cardholders as of October 1, 2013, can convert their Aventura points into Aeroplan Miles, these conversions are not eligible for this bonus miles promotion.

Bonus Aeroplan Miles received from the exchange of hotel loyalty program points into Aeroplan Miles are not eligible for status in the Aeroplan program.
