Targeted: Earn a 50% Aeroplan SQC Boost on Air Canada Flights to Europe

Air Canada is offering select Aeroplan members a quick path to elite status this fall. A new targeted promotion gives members a 50% bonus on Status Qualifying Miles (SQM) when flying in a premium cabin between Canada and Europe.

The booking window is tight. You must lock in your flights by October 11, 2026, and complete all travel between October 5 and November 30, 2026. This promotion only applies to premium economy and business class cash fares operated directly by Air Canada.

Before you book, check your email or the Aeroplan promotions tab to confirm you're targeted. As expected, standard economy tickets, award bookings, and partner airline flights are excluded from earning the boost.

Andrew's Take

Transatlantic premium fares aren't cheap, so a 50% bonus on those flights can help you close your status gap in a hurry. Just don't miss that October 11 booking deadline.
