Oct 20 Update: Rexall announces Air Miles as their new loyalty partner, 3x Aeroplan Miles for Wyndham stays, Porter & KLM seat sales

Rexall announces its new loyalty partner and triple Aeroplan miles for Wyndham stays.

News, Tips & Tricks

Just days after the notice of Aeroplan and Rexall calling it quits we learn that Air Miles
is the new loyalty program of choice for drug store chain in Ontario
and the Western Provinces. That’s two major retailers in the span of a
few months that have jumped ship from Aeroplan to Air Miles. For those
of you who read this blog, you’ll know my local shopping area once had
three merchants participating in Aeroplan and quickly that has changed
to only one and two for Air Miles. For Aeroplan frequent shoppers this
isn’t good news but then again Aeroplan, although a full fledged
coalition program, is still a major frequent flyer program and credit
card miles issuer which means for them this isn’t that big of loss. For
Air Miles, which is pretty much only a frequent shopper program the gain
is good but one has to wonder, what incentives Air Miles is giving to
gain these merchants as we know they have been feeling the pinch from
Aeroplan and from many of the other credit card and propietary loyalty
programs. You can find out more about the Rexall and Air Miles partnership here.
