Amazon Canada has now been pulled from Aeroplan eStore – you officially cannot earn any miles, points or cash back for shopping at Amazon via any of the online portals.
Japan’s two major airlines, JAL and ANA
have both issued extensions of mileage expiry by one year and both have
also initiated double elite status point earning on all their flights.
ANA’s double premium points offer is good for all flights to June 30 and
JAL’s double Fly On Points is valid on flights until July 31. Learn
more about the ANA details here and the JAL details here.
Qantas has also revealed that elite status members
in the Qantas Frequent Flyer program will get 12 month extensions on
their status. Find out more here
The extension will be actioned in two phases – if your membership year ends:
- between March and June 2020, it will be automatically extended by 27 March 2020; and
- between July 2020 and February 2021, it will be automatically extended by 9 April 2020.
The processing date for the 12 month status extension cannot be
changed. And here is the chart of when the extensions will be valid to:
