Make Your Bilt Points Go Further with Aeroplan

This Rent Day we’re partnering with Aeroplan, the loyalty program of Air Canada, to bring you a 75% to 150% transfer bonus based on your Bilt status. That means every Bilt Point you transfer to Aeroplan on February 1st is worth at least 75% more. 

So if you transferred 10,000 Bilt Points to Aeroplan on Rent Day, that would become 17,500 Aeroplan Points as a Blue Member, 20,000 Aeroplan Points as a Gold Member, 22,500 Aeroplan Points as a Gold Member, and 25,000 Aeroplan Points as a Platinum Member.

How Can You Use Aeroplan Points?

As a member of the Star Alliance Network, Aeroplan points can be used with 45+ airline partners, including Emirates, Lufthansa, and Singapore Airlines to name just a few. 

Here are five global destinations you could book with Aeroplan points after transferring your Bilt Points this Rent Days.

East Coast to London with United

While flying economy from New York (EWR) to London (LHR) with United would usually cost you 35,000 Bilt Points transferred to Aeroplan, with our Rent Day transfer bonus, you could now book it for as few as 20,000 Bilt Points as a Blue Member, or 14,000 points as a Platinum Member

East Coast to India with Turkish Airlines

A direct, business class flight from New York (JFK) to Mumbai (BOM) would usually cost 52,500 miles with Turkish Airlines, but using the Rent Day transfer bonus you could book this flight by transferring 30,000 Bilt Points as a Blue Member, or 21,000 points as a Platinum Member

West Coast to Japan with All Nippon Airways (ANA)

Looking to finally make that bucket list trip to Japan? There’s never been a better time. While a nonstop business class flight from Seattle (SEA) to Tokyo-Narita (NRT) would usually start around 55,000 points with ANA, the Rent Day transfer bonus means you could book this flight for 31,428 Bilt Points as a Blue Member, or 22,000 points as a Platinum Member

Stopover in Japan, then on to Singapore with Air Canada and Singapore Airlines

Want to make even more of your long haul trip? Aeroplan has a fantastic stopover policy that allows you to add one stopover to each one-way trip for only 5,000 additional points (as long as the stop is not in North America). For example, you could expand a flight from Los Angeles (LAX) to Singapore (SIN) by adding a 3 day stopover in Tokyo (NRT). This would usually cost you around 54,000 points in economy, but would drop to 30,857 Bilt Points as a Blue Member, or 21,600 points as a Platinum Member this Rent Day.

West Coast to New Zealand with Air New Zealand

While flying all the way to New Zealand on points might seem impossible, this Rent Day you can make it a reality. An Air New Zealand business class flight from San Francisco (SFO) to Auckland (AKL) will usually cost you around 75,000 points, meaning with our transfer bonus, Blue Members could snag this flight for 42,857 Bilt Points, and Platinum Members for 30,000 Bilt Points.
