How do you redeem Aeroplan Miles to book flights?

Redeeming Aeroplan Miles to book flights involves choosing a destination, determining what flights are covered by the available number of miles, logging into a person's Aeroplan account, redeeming miles and booking the flight. Aeroplan Miles is a loyalty program in Canada where customers can earn miles when using any of the more than 150 businesses associated with the program. The miles can then be redeemed for flights on Air Canada or its 27 Star Alliance airline partners.

A few steps are involved to redeem Aeroplan Miles to book flights:

1. Determine where and when you want to fly

Aeroplan Miles can be used on flights to over 1,300 locations throughout the world, as of April 2015.
