Air Canada Aeroplan has launched a promotion that gives a 15% bonus on points transfers from Marriott Bonvoy. This opportunity is available from October 1 to October 31, 2026. To take part, no registration is necessary; just carry out an eligible transfer, and the bonus points will be added to your Aeroplan account, although it could take 8-10 weeks after the promotion for the bonus to show up.
Marriott Bonvoy points usually convert to airline miles at a 3:1 rate, with an additional bonus of 5,000 points for every 60,000 Bonvoy points transferred. With this promotion, transferring 60,000 Bonvoy points results in 28,750 Aeroplan points, considering the 15% bonus.
While this offer may be advantageous, some individuals might opt to collect Aeroplan points through alternative methods, keeping Bonvoy points for high-end hotel accommodations due to their limited earning avenues. The promotion serves as a chance for those seeking to enhance their Aeroplan balance, although personal preferences regarding point usage can differ.
