(There are actually 8 now; the last one I just added as it came out yesterday!)
Aeroplan: Major changes to best points redemptions (on partner airlines)
An absolute must-read if you have the best airline points.
Marriott Bonvoy promotion (Winter 2025): Bonus of 1 elite night and 1,000 points per night
Twice as easy to get higher elite status at Marriott Bonvoy (or even at Air Canada Aeroplan if you want).
TD Rewards hotel promotion: 15,000 bonus points ($75) when you book 3 nights in certain regions (can give you 38% back)
An excellent deal to get a discount, but an even better deal if you haven’t yet used your TD $100 annual travel credit for 2025.
How to redeem TD Rewards points (6 options)
Very simple points that you can get in huge quantities right now.
How to redeem American Express Membership Rewards points (8 options)
The best points in Canada, nothing less.
BMO credit card changes for 2025
These are minor changes, but they’re still negative ones. This reinforces 2 things I shared in recent posts.
New welcome bonus worth ≈ $405 to UNLIMITED: Cathay World Elite Mastercard, powered by Neo (not available in Québec)
An excellent welcome bonus for valuable airline points. Especially great for flights in business class and first class (even more than other airline points). Secured version also available (no credit history required). If you live in Québec, we’ll let you know if this card ever becomes available.
Exclusive American Express Platinum and Land Rover event in Whistler (free)
Last minute addition: If you have the American Express Platinum Card and are interested in a unique (and free) experience, check your emails to see the one sent by American Express yesterday before the very limited spots for this cool event are all taken!
I am very tempted to finally visit Whistler for the first time to take advantage of this. These Amex Platinum events are amazing. I go to the Amex Platinum events for Miami Art Week every year and last year I loved the very first Amex Platinum events for Montreal’s F1 weekend. This one has a test drive, wellness, après-ski, “adventure”, refined tastings, etc.
