TORONTO - Since moving to Windsor, N.S., from Toronto in 2021, Stefan Palios has been able to return for multiple visits with his grandparents, and travel reward points have made a big difference.
“I don’t use my debit card,” he said. “And, I pay off my cards every month in full to avoid interest.” “To give context, 70,000 points is worth a minimum value of $700. And, if you transfer those points to Aeroplan at a one-to-one ratio, you can almost get double the value quite easily.” For example, RBC rewards points can be converted to WestJet dollars and American Express rewards points can be transferred to Marriott Bonvoy, a hotel loyalty program, in addition to Aeroplan, Choi said.
We've a cash back credit card (less than 1/2 the fee of the article card) giving 4% on groceries/gas & 2% most elsewhere, combined with other savings programs like PC Optimum & cash Air Miles + hotel loyalty programs & we can fly on any airline, paid with savings earned elsewhere
