Buddy you sound like the type of investor that decides to not invest in Alphabet because you are not happy with the search results google is giving you. I have been looking at twitter and online as a indication of what are the main irritant of AP and really it looks like most, if not all, of the issues are towards availability of flight and expiration of membership. Availability will be fixed with opening the program with other airlines. expiration is IMO a non issue because members that expire are disengaged from the program (although AP should find a wya to re-engage which i suspect amazon partnership will mitigate that).

Ppl complaining about the estore is not prelevent. They can definitivly do better and they should. but if i were them i would put efforts into the bigger picture and finding ways to implement the systems with bulk providers to by seats on any airline instead of on AC only.

Amazon probably has one of the biggest referal system out there. You see a ad on any website and Amazon gives a cut to the website. it all work the same... click on ad (in this case estore link) you are redirected to amazon's product page (in this case amazon home page) you purchase and amazon give a cut to where the shoper came from (in this case aeroplan). extra step is AP giving you back some points. I have done it flawlesly with Amazon, Banana republic, Old Navy, Sephora. All worked perfectly well and easy. I call BS on it being hard to use, or that is slows down anything or any other complaint you ave about it.

I do agree that it could be prettier and that native integration with all retailers would be awesome but that will not happen. These are referal paid from the suppliers. It will not be "add your aeroplan number at check out" style. never will be unless they form full partnership with the retailers but we can see that this is not where AP is going. Which is a good thing cause that is why we are in this mess now... hand full of partners means alot less leverage in case one leaves.
