June 17 Update: RBC Avion to British Airways transfer bonus returns and we update our Choosing a Travel Rewards Credit Card Flow Chart!

News, Tips & Tricks

Many of you have been asking us via email, Twitter and
Facebook as to when the next RBC Avion to British Airways transfer bonus
will happen. Well its here and once again like last fall it is a 30%
bonus. I think the days of the 50% bonus are gone as are two month
windows for taking advantage of the offer. That being said 30% is still
really decent and now is the time to transfer! Find out more about the offer here.

It has been a long time coming but our Choosing a Travel Rewards Credit Card Flow Chart
has been migrated from our pre-2014 site design to the current website
design and updated with all the current credit cards. Looking over it
however we’ll probably make a few more changes to it in the future.
First we need to throw in the question as to how many people you plan on
redeeming for. If it is for 1 or 2 people the $80,000 spend question is
valid but if it is 3 or more people that should be more like $120,000.
Also probably need to take into account redemption frequency! Stay tuned
for that.

Uniprix are offering double Aeroplan miles on all purchases over $40 until June 21st. Find out more here.
