Sell Air Canada Aeroplan Miles (Aeroplan Points) for Cash

Before you sell: know the risk

Selling Aeroplan points is against the Aeroplan terms and conditions. The terms say points cannot be traded, bartered, exchanged for cash or otherwise transferred, and that a breach may result in the termination of your membership and the cancellation of the affected points. We cannot promise how Air Canada will respond to a sale.

Price guarantee: the price per point we agree with you in writing by email is the price we pay once your points transfer is complete.

Why Sell Aeroplan Miles in 2026?

Aeroplan is arguably the most versatile program in the Star Alliance network, but it has become increasingly difficult for individual travelers to maximize. In 2026, selling your miles is the smartest move for several reasons:

  • Dynamic Pricing Pitfalls: Air Canada uses dynamic pricing for its own flights. This means a flight that cost 60,000 miles yesterday could cost 150,000 today. Selling your miles locks in a fixed cash value.

  • Partner Booking Fees: Aeroplan charges a flat $39 partner booking fee on every ticket. While it sounds small, it eats into the value of your “free” flight.

  • Expiration Risk: Your Aeroplan miles expire after just 18 months of inactivity. If you aren’t flying Air Canada regularly, your hard-earned rewards could vanish.

Air Canada is a founding member of Star Alliance, so Aeroplan points can be earned and used on partner airlines such as United, Lufthansa and Singapore Airlines. The member list changes, so check Star Alliance’s member page for the current one.

Aeroplan Elite Status

Air Canada Altitude was replaced by Aeroplan Elite Status, which has five levels: 25K, 35K, 50K, 75K and Super Elite. Members now qualify by collecting Status Qualifying Credits (SQC), which are based mainly on what they spend on Air Canada flights, with smaller amounts from partners and Aeroplan credit cards. The rules change, so check Air Canada’s Aeroplan Elite Status page for the current details.

Other ways to earn Aeroplan miles are:

  • Flying with any of the member airlines of Star Alliance or other partner airlines such as Copa Airlines and Eurowings.
  • Renting a car from Budget and other car rental agencies.
  • Staying at Wyndham, Marriott, Aloft Hotels and other partner hotel chains.
  • Purchasing from some of the many participating merchants, like eBay and Apple.
  • Using an Aeroplan co-branded credit card.
