RE:RE:Aeroplan UpdateAlthough people accumulate points in many different ways.... mostly Credit cards... the majority of the points they accumulate are redeemed for AC Flights....So if people can't redeem for flights at a
resonable rate , they will switch to a plan that gives them a better bang for their buck. And that's where the new AC plan comes in... AC will sign deals with credit cards that will allow people to accumulate points and then redeem them at a better rate.

Aeroplan is much more than a frequent flyer program. The majority of our members earn miles not by flying but by using affiliated financial cards and shopping through our network of more than 75 world-class partners, representing more than 150 brands in the financial, retail, and travel sectors.

that's what I'm saying, the flying AC is just a small part of the Aeroplan
