Sell Aeroplan
Sellers typically hold Aeroplan balances built from Canadian co-brand spending. Any transfer must comply with Air Canada's programme terms, which the account holder is responsible for reviewing.
What to weigh first
Redemption value
Aeroplan value is easiest to model on partner long-haul business class, where the distance-based chart can be markedly cheaper than an equivalent cash fare.
Transfer rules
Air Canada operates its own points transfer and family-sharing features, and several bank programmes list Aeroplan as a transfer partner. Terms, ratios and fees are set by Air Canada and the bank.
Expiry
Points remain valid while the account records qualifying activity within the programme's stated inactivity window. Confirm the current rule directly with Air Canada before relying on it.
Alternatives to selling Aeroplan points
How Aeroplan awards are priced
Awards are priced by region pair and flown distance, with separate charts for Air Canada flights and partner flights. Aeroplan also sells upgrades, hotel bookings and car rentals through its own portal.
Where the balance came from
Points are earned on Air Canada and Star Alliance flights, co-brand cards in Canada, retail partners and Aeroplan eStore activity. Status members earn additional points based on fare class and Aeroplan Elite tier.
Partner airlines worth checking first
Before requesting a sell quote, price a redemption on United, Lufthansa, Swiss, ANA — partner availability often turns an idle Aeroplan points balance into a better outcome than a sale.
