We see the return of the Aeroplan hotel loyalty program conversion bonus!
Last seen in November, the hotel only transfer bonus is back and as we have now become accustomed to it is a 30% bonus. There are two programs offering more miles however, Radisson Rewards is adding in an additional 30% for 60% total while Coast Hotels Coast Rewards is giving 4x Aeroplen Miles. You’ll have until April 22
to
make any transfers into Aeroplan. This bonus offer is a good way to use up some of those orphaned
hotel points you may never use if you are a frequent Aeroplan redeemer.
The great news for the spring version of this bonus is that Marriott Bonvoy is included again, well last time we still knew it as Marriott Rewards.
Marriott (and its subsidiaries) have the best transfer ratio to airline
programs at a rate of 3 Marriott Rewards points to 1 airline mile but
they also add in 5,000 more miles when you convert 60,000 points at a
time. That means with this promotion 60,000 points transferred to
Aeroplan will net you 32,500 miles (20,000 miles at 3:1 + 5,000 miles
from Marriott + 30% bonus). The easiest way to earn Marriott points in
Canada outside of actual hotel stays is with the Marriott Bonvoy American Express Card which
at the time of this post is offering 60,000 points as a welcome bonus.
Now chances are you won’t have the points post from the card in time for this
iteration of the Aeroplan transfer bonus but you can start banking on
the summer bonus which typically comes around August. This is also a good time to convert
points from something like the Cobalt Card to Marriott to Aeroplan!
Most of Aeroplan’s hotel partners are participating in the promotion so
you can convert from any of the following to add to your final tally.
