Smart Recommendations
Best Time to Book
Book award flights for peak summer travel (June to August) as early as January, especially for popular routes like New York to London, to secure the best availability.
Sweet Spot
You can redeem 80,000 Aeroplan miles for a round-trip business class ticket from Toronto to Tokyo, which typically costs around $4,000 in cash.
Routing Trick
You can save 5,000 miles by booking a round-trip from San Francisco (SFO) to London (LHR) via Toronto (YYZ) instead of flying direct, as the round-trip direct flight is 20,000 miles while the multi-city routing totals only 15,000 miles.
Avoid These Fees
Avoid flying with Spirit Airlines, as they charge up to $65 for a carry-on bag and $45 for a checked bag, significantly increasing your travel costs.
