Chase and Aeroplan announced the refreshed U.S. Aeroplan card on September 10, 2026. The new package includes a 15% discount on eligible Air Canada flight rewards, automatic Aeroplan 25K status and up to $100 in annual Air Canada statement credits, split into two $50 half-year credits. The announced annual fee is $195.

## Compare the trip you already want

For illustration, applying a 15% reduction to an eligible 60,000-point price produces 51,000 points. That is arithmetic, not an available fare. Use the final price shown after signing in; eligibility and the cash component still matter.

List the trips already on your calendar and count benefits you expect to use. Compare that value with the annual fee.

Worth knowing

### Before transferring points

Check airline, reward eligibility, passenger count, cash charges and cancellation rules. No live inventory was checked.
