Smart Recommendations

Best Time to Book

Book award flights for travel to Europe from North America during the low season of mid-January to mid-March for the best availability, particularly for routes like Toronto to London.

Sweet Spot

You can fly from Vancouver to Sydney for 88,000 Aeroplan miles one-way in business class, which typically costs around $5,500 in cash.

Routing Trick

Book a round-trip from New York (JFK) to Los Angeles (LAX) via Toronto (YYZ) for 25,000 miles instead of the usual 50,000 miles for a direct flight, saving 25,000 miles.

Avoid These Fees

Avoid booking flights with Spirit Airlines on their domestic routes, as they can charge up to $65 for a carry-on bag and $100 for checked baggage, significantly increasing your travel costs.
