Why Air Canada Aeroplan points are worth what they are

Aeroplan points are valued at 1.4 to 1.5 cents each in September 2026, with The Points Guy raising its figure from 1.45 to 1.5 cents this year. Aeroplan is the most widely praised program in the Star Alliance for partner awards: it prices them from a distance-based chart, adds no fuel surcharges, and allows a stopover for 5,000 points.

Aeroplan is also one of the easiest currencies to fund from the United States, with American Express Membership Rewards, Chase Ultimate Rewards, Capital One and Bilt all transferring at 1:1, often with bonuses. That accessibility is good for members who want to top up for a specific award and a reason not to hoard: a balance can usually be rebuilt when needed.

Air Canada prices its own flights dynamically, so the value of an award on Air Canada metal varies more than the partner chart. Read the Aeroplan program guide or get a quote for Aeroplan points.

Chase Ultimate Rewards (1:1), American Express Membership Rewards (1:1), Capital One miles (1:1), Bilt Rewards (1:1), Marriott Bonvoy (3:1) transfer into Air Canada Aeroplan. The program is in Star Alliance. See the transfer partner matrix.
