Aeroplan Gives Members More Ways to Earn Miles with Two Fall Promotions

CIBC, Air Canada, Esso, Home Hardware and Nestlé are just some of the participating Aeroplan partners

MONTREAL, Sept. 20 /CNW Telbec/ - Aeroplan today announced that members can earn even more miles this fall during two bonus promotions.

Starting today until November 14, 2010, members can earn double miles for every dollar spent with Air Canada when they use their CIBC Aerogold Visa or CIBC Aerogold Visa Infinite Card. Aeroplan and its partners will be communicating the promotion directly to members through their own communication vehicles and reaching a wider audience via a mass advertising campaign that includes print and online ads in EnRoute Magazine and major newspaper outlets across the country starting September 20, 2010.

In addition, as of September 13th until October 24, 2010, The Great Aeroplan Round Up lets members earn double miles when they shop with 3 or more of the following qualifying partners: Dumoulin/Audiotronic, Esso, Home Hardware, Nestlé, Rexall and Rexall Pharma Plus, Uniprix and through Aeroplan eStore retailers: Chapters.Indigo.ca,  the Gift card boutique, and The Shopping Channel.  Members will also receive a 10 per cent discount off Air Canada flights when they accumulate miles with three qualifying partners during the promotion period.  A special tool has been developed to help members track how many partners they've accumulated with during the campaign and is available on the member's profile page on aeroplan.com.

"We're proud of our strong coalition of over 75 world-class partners in which members can earn miles daily," said David Klein, Vice President, Marketing, Aeroplan.  "Last year, millions of miles were earned by our members during fall promotions.  These special promotions give members additional opportunities to earn even more miles with a variety of Aeroplan partners and ultimately let members reach their reward goals sooner."

For example, under the Air Canada/CIBC promotion, if a member purchases a $750 Air Canada flight using a CIBC Aerogold Visa or CIBC Aerogold Visa Infinite Card, they could earn 1,500 Aeroplan Miles.
