Smart Recommendations

Best Time to Book

Book award flights for travel to Europe from North America in late January to early February, as availability often opens up significantly during this period for routes like Toronto to London.

Sweet Spot

You can redeem 30,000 Aeroplan miles for a one-way flight from the U.S. to Europe, which typically costs around $600 in cash.

Routing Trick

Book a round-trip from New York (JFK) to Tokyo (NRT) via Vancouver (YVR) instead of a direct flight, allowing you to save approximately 10,000 miles, as the JFK-YVR-NRT route is often priced lower than the direct JFK-NRT route.

Avoid These Fees

Avoid flying with Spirit Airlines for domestic routes in the U.S., as they can charge up to $65 for a carry-on bag and $45 for checked luggage, significantly increasing your travel costs.
