Aeroplan OneWay Awards
« on: February 24, 2011, 05:27:02 PM »
Anyone have any experience using these? I am looking at doing an AMEX MR transfer but I want oneway and they seem to be the only Star carrier that allows oneways. The problem is the booking engine online isn't letting me do it. Thoughts?

I may be wrong but I was under the impression that Aeroplan only allows one ways on their own metal, not on star alliance awards.

Anyone know for sure?

Only only their own metal.
And you will pay $$$$ for flying on AC metal.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

You can transfer AMEX to Singapore Airlines for a One-Way but keep in mind that they consider US Business as First Class

I just did a 10K one way on AC metal from YYZ-ORD and taxes were over $100 per person. Makes you wonder..

LAN is definitely the way to go for that route!
