Rewards Canada News

This was a big week for news from Aeroplan as they revealed the details of the new program that will launch on November 8. There is a lot of information to digest with the new program and the crazy thing is that not all has been revealed just yet. Here on Rewards Canada you'll find three articles from this week covering the majority of the news and those won't be the last. You can figure this will be front and centre in the news for the remainder of the year and even into 2021.

The new Air Canada Aeroplan program revealed - it all goes live on November 8!
