Well it was inevitable that Aeroplan would increase the Aeroplan miles required for some of the sweet spots of their chart.

Major changes:

  1. Canada to Europe 1 Business Class has gone from 90,000 Aeroplan Miles to 110,000 miles.
  2. Business class awards within Asia 1 (increasing from 30,000 miles to 80,000 miles round-trip)
  3. Between Europe 1 and Asia 2 (increasing from 105,000 miles to 150,000 miles.)
  4. Previously there was a separate one-way award chart that only applied to travel departing Canada and the continental U.S. That’s now being scrapped and replaced with a general rule that any award can be booked one-way for 50% of the round-trip price.

I am not happy with the changes but it had to happen (the other major programs recently made changes).
