Marriott Bonvoy and Aeroplan expand Loyalty Partnership

Marriott Bonvoy Aeroplan

Marriott Bonvoy and Aeroplan, Canada’s leading travel loyalty program run by Canada’s largest airline, Air Canada, have deepened their loyalty partnership, building on a longstanding relationship between two iconic travel brands to offer elevated value and enhanced benefits to travelers.

Through this enhanced loyalty partnership, Aeroplan 50K, 75K, and Super Elite Members will receive complimentary Marriott Bonvoy Gold Elite Status, while Marriott Bonvoy Titanium Elite and Ambassador Elite members will receive complimentary Aeroplan 25K Status.

The joint member must link both loyalty accounts to unlock the status match across programs. 

In addition, Aeroplan Elite Status Members can now convert their Aeroplan points into Marriott Bonvoy points at a 1:1 ratio, adding greater flexibility to how members can use their Aeroplan points.

This is in addition to the already existing ability for members to convert their Bonvoy points into Aeroplan points at a 3:1 ratio.

Together, these improved benefits provide members of both loyalty programs more opportunities to enhance their overall travel and lifestyle experiences.

With Marriott Bonvoy Gold Elite status, members can enjoy exclusive benefits including priority late check out, enhanced room upgrades, and 25% bonus Marriott Bonvoy points on eligible stays, among a variety of other benefits to enhance members’ experience.

In turn, Aeroplan 25K Status Members can enjoy priority airport services that currently include priority check-in and boarding, two complimentary checked bags, eUpgrade credits to enjoy extra comfort, complimentary preferred seats, exclusive offers and more.

However, it is important to note that many of the above benefits are subject to availability so we will have to see how this will play out.

Marriott Bonvoy members love to passionately explore cultures around the world, and together with Aeroplan, we are making aspirational destinations and incredible travel experiences more attainable and enjoyable for our members,” said David Flueck, Senior Vice President, Global Head, Loyalty, Cards and Enterprise Partnerships, Marriott International. “Whether it is through a preferred airline partner like Aeroplan or our rapidly growing portfolio of global properties across more than 30 brands, we are focused on delivering more value, benefits and travel experiences for our members.”
