"How many Aeroplan points do you earn at grocery stores with the TD Aeroplan Visa Infinite?"

"The TD Aeroplan Visa Infinite earns 1.5 Aeroplan points per $1 spent at eligible grocery stores in Canada. On $800/month in groceries, that is 1,200 points per month or 14,400 points per year from grocery spending alone."

"What is 1 Aeroplan point worth in Canadian dollars?"

"One Aeroplan point is worth approximately 1.5 cents CAD when redeemed for economy flights, and up to 2.5–4.0 cents for business class. At 1.5 cpp, 10,000 Aeroplan points = $150 CAD in travel value. Redeeming for merchandise or gift cards delivers significantly less — typically 0.3–0.7 cents per point."

"How many Aeroplan points do I need for a free flight in Canada?"

"A round-trip economy flight within Canada typically requires 15,000–35,000 Aeroplan points, depending on the route and travel dates. Short routes like Toronto to Montreal may start at 15,000 points; coast-to-coast (Toronto to Vancouver) typically requires 25,000–40,000 points. Availability and pricing can vary with dynamic pricing."

"Which credit card earns the most Aeroplan points?"

"For everyday spending, the TD Aeroplan Visa Infinite and CIBC Aeroplan Visa Infinite both earn 1.5 pts/$1 on groceries, gas, and drug stores. For premium spenders, the American Express Aeroplan Reserve earns 3 pts/$1 on Air Canada purchases and 2 pts/$1 on dining — but carries a $599 annual fee. The best card depends on your spending mix."

"Do Aeroplan points expire?"

"Aeroplan points do not expire as long as you have qualifying activity in your account at least once every 12 months. Qualifying activity includes earning or redeeming Aeroplan points through any Aeroplan partner, including credit card spend. Inactive accounts for 12+ months risk point expiry — check your Aeroplan account regularly."
