Chase Air Canada Aeroplan Card

4.2 / 5
Air Canada Aeroplan points · Personal card

The September 2026 refresh doubled the fee to $195 and traded the 3x grocery and dining rates for automatic Aeroplan 25K status and 15% off Air Canada award flights. It now suits people who actually fly Air Canada, and Aeroplan points still punch above their weight on Star Alliance partner awards.
