Aeroplan and its members and partners come together to give on Mileage
    Multiplying Day

    MONTREAL, May 23 /CNW Telbec/ - Aeroplan today announced that more than
28 million miles were raised on Mileage Multiplying Day, May 17, 2007, in
celebration of the first anniversary of Beyond Miles, Aeroplan's online member
donation program.
    Aeroplan members donated more than five million Aeroplan Miles. This
generosity was increased by five Aeroplan commercial partners - Aeromove, Air
Canada, Avis Car Rental, Fairmont Hotels & Resorts and National Car Rental;
and by Aeroplan matching donations on a two-for-one basis.
    Miles raised also include the renewal of Aeroplan's 7 million Aeroplan
Mile annual donation and the renewal of Beyond Miles' founding sponsors' -
American Express and CIBC - commitment of 2.1 million Aeroplan Miles each.
    "To mark Beyond Miles' first anniversary with a donation of this
magnitude, with the knowledge that these miles will be put to such good use,
is extremely rewarding for everyone involved," said Rupert Duchesne, President
and CEO, Aeroplan. "Having our members and partners respond in such a
generous, positive way demonstrates our shared commitment to social
responsibility."
    Donated miles support the hard work of the seven Beyond Miles partners:
Canadian Executive Service Organization, Engineers Without Borders, Médecins
Sans Frontières, Schools Without Borders, the Stephen Lewis Foundation,
Veterinarians Without Borders and Air Canada's Kids Horizons program. Travel
is fundamental to these organizations' operations and one of the most
significant costs of their work.
