How to find Aeroplan flights

[MEL_Traveller]

Does anyone know if you can route US to Australia via Europe? I can only see 1 online option via Air India, but if I look at individual segments, NY to Brussels Brussels to Brisbane I am ok. Obviously I would need to do this via the call centre.

That’s fine in principle, subject to the restriction that the total journey (multiple segments) cannot exceed double the distance of the non-stop.

If the non-stop is 4000 miles, your constructed itinerary can’t exceed 8000 miles.

It's been a known pain point that NH (ANA) award disappeared from Aeroplan a while back and it was a big edeal that NH Economy has recently shown up again very recently. NH J is yet to come back - so as to answer your question, no NH J yet.

No point phoning AC about it. Keep an eye in FT if you want to find out when its back. Anything that can redeem NH (especially generous programs like AC) make the news rounds quickly.

NH via VS is also possible with VA visibility. Lots of people in NA especially are using VA seat alerts for NH to then use VS to book.

I can see NH from Australia in J now on aeroplan. Not that many but better than QF.

Yes and have done it in reverse before (Australia to Toronto with a 2 week stop over in Zurich). This can all be done online via the AC website. Select multicity, enter your origin of New York, final destination as Brisbane and then click the little blue link that says add stopover and set Brussels as a stopover city. Then choose how many days you want to spend in Brussels.

Yes, but if you don’t want to stop anywhere, you will need to call up.

The small catch is that sometimes there are revenue management controls in place… for example married segments. This can mean some combinations aren’t possible.

But generally speaking, if you find multiple sectors, aeroplan should be an,e to piece them together.

One more question, why you cancel an award, how long for the points to be returned?

Pretty much immediately in my experience
