Air Canada's Aeroplan is at it again! They're offering up to a 100% bonus on purchased points until December 17th. This sweetens the deal, bringing the price down to around 1.33 cents per point. So, is it time to load up? Before you jump in, remember that buying points is rarely a slam dunk. You're essentially gambling that you can redeem those points for more value than you paid. This offer can be a good idea if you have a specific high-value redemption in mind, like a business class flight that would otherwise cost you a fortune. Do the math: compare the cash price of the flight to the points needed (plus the cost to buy them). Generally, buying points speculatively isn't recommended. But if you're close to a redemption and need a few more points, or you've found a truly amazing award deal, this bonus could be your ticket to that dream trip! Just be sure to crunch the numbers and make sure it makes sense for *your* travel goals.
