Always dropping value! Good reminder about the Aeroplan stopover option to squeeze even more value 💪
Thanks for always sharing amazing travel deals🥳🚀🛫
This is 5 videos in one. Information overload!
Your content is always great and valuable. Is there a video or you still should make a video of the Asia miles or a demo of how to book partners with Aeroplan points?
Hi Daniel!
There is a video about Asia Miles, however it is probably due for an update as some of their pricing has changed since it was released. It can be found here, however:
youtube.pulse.ly/oblekiir7b
An updated Asia Miles guide is available on our website in the meantime.

Lastly, to book Aeroplan partners with points, you search the same as you would for any Air Canada flight, and if there are partner seats available on your desired route, they will show in the search results. Our Aeroplan guide provides some more details on that as well.

Cheers!
@@PrinceofTravel thanks for taking the time to reply. I'll take a look, I'm sure they will be helpful, I look forward to an updated version of Asia miles, all the best!!!
My score of the year so far is o/w HNL-YUL economy 10,100 points and 100 bucks tax. 787 service to Toronto, A330 to Montreal.
Flying Blue business class isn't always 50K though. There are usually only a couple days per month available at that point level. Most are way higher - ie a range.
How do you book a flight with a month long layover? Is there a specific way to find this when using aeroplan ?
You can search and book online right on Air Canada's main site. We have a post with some more details on the process. princeoftravel.com/guides/aeroplan-stopovers/
Can you get the welcome bonus on the RBC Avion Visa Platinum if you already have the RBC Avion Visa Infinite and got the welcome bonus there (taking into account the 190 rule) ?
Domestic partnerships such as flights with 5T are also valuable. Since it's domestic, you can book the entire $2,300 Arctic Capital Express on just 12.5K points. I'm doing it later this year. I have yet to see a vlog on this 4-stop route.
How do you book this?
I got a question. Do hard poles stay on your report for six years. If so, do you have to wait till those hard inquiries fall off your report if you have a lot of them also having too many credit cards stop you from getting credit because I’m thinking about getting the American Express cashback card, I would like to get it but I’m afraid it’s gonna get because I have a lot of cards already and hard pulls I haven’t made any new hard pulls the last four months
Hey Mike, check out this article on our website about managing your credit inquiries: princeoftravel.com/guides/how-to-manage-your-credit-inquiries/
I have enjoyed all the videos i've watched from you but it is still too much information for me to process. Do you offer any services to find me the best deal for 1 particular trip we want to be making with specific dates?
Yes we do offer award search consultation service:

Hope this helps! :)
When I book with Air Canada it says "Earn 100% Aeroplan points and Status Qualifying Miles; choose a standard seat anytime at no charge.." That means I get 100% points for the amount of moneys I paid for the tickets or 100% points for the actual miles I travel by Air Canada?
Status Qualifying Dollars are earned based on the dollars you spend on flights ticketed by Air Canada (tickets starting with 014), Status Qualifying Miles (and points) are earned based on fare category and distance flown.

“Keep in mind that the amount of Aeroplan points you earn on a flight largely mirrors the amount of SQM earned, although it’s important to point out that these are two very different things.”
Which credit card should I get as a student?
Try look into these ones
RBC: ION or ION+
TD: Aeroplan Platinum
CIBC: Aeroplan Platinum
Scotiabank: Scene Visa for Student
@@PrinceofTravel oh I didn't know,
I got the amex green card and cibc aeroplan visa card (free one). What should I get next? And which one should I use daily?
Hi, feel free to join us in our facebook group:
facebook.pulse.ly/tbs08pitsd
And you can have our community to help to chime in their recommendations also :)
Is there any website to view which routes have the points discount each month ? Planning to visit 2-3 countries in Europe later this year and it doesn’t really matter to me if the flight is from anywhere in canada.
The 2 main airlines program that offer monthly discount are Airfrance/KLM'sFlying Blue program, and Singapore Airlines' Krisflyer. So you may subscribe to their program newsletter, or you can read our monthly publication when they do release their monthly promo:
For example for this month:
princeoftravel.pulse.ly/oq6hiemlrs
princeoftravel.pulse.ly/uaf9fzefjh
or you can also join us on facebook to get notified when such articles are released:

100k lfg!!!
Condor and eurowings are a fortune
I couldn't find ANY flight from Eurowings...got details?
You need to find out which route does eurowings fly to first before able to search for it efficiently
As an Aeroplan member I am never able to get the deals you claim are available. Most normal people cant have multiple loyalty plans and accumulate points at a reasonable rate to be able to redeem points for flights on multiple programs. Additionally, most people don't have the kind of flexibility with their life schedule to be able to maximize rewards benefits as you claim.
It would be far more useful to subscribers for you to talk about one loyalty program in a video at a slower pace than jumping around about what can be done on multiple reward programs. Your videos would be more helpful if you were more focused! Sorry to be critical but I am meaning to be constructive...Cheers!
The only way to redeem reasonable points these days is to plan your dates around award availability. If you have fixed dates pretty much forget about using your points. Especially if you are stuck travelling at peak holiday times.
You need to research and try it yourself by logging in and looking at routes. Not everything can be covered in one video. I can attest to getting several deals from this channel over last 5 years.
I feel you pain, but there is no shortcut to a great deal. To put it in perspective I spend between 2-5 hours a week checking pricing, looking at specials, drilling into points options. It's an exhaustive process, which is why most people don't bother. I guess you have to really enjoy the hunt (and have the time/inclination to do so!)
