off topic a little but me and the missus had AeroPlat cards. She also had a J award. The MLL attendant let us use my wife's Aeroplat to let my son in gratis.

Same with my wife's CIBC Infinite card.. Letter, but no MLL pass.

Perhaps they'll be sending the MLL pass at a later date?

Guest pass states that it is good for only one person for one visit and invitation of addditional guests is not permitted

Unlikely to be used

Two letters here. They had different PS: content at the bottom of each. The one addressed to someone without status included a pass, the one addressed to someone with status did not. Since these can only be used on reward flights I think there is little chance of using it, but we'll see I suppose.

So I guess I can't really stretch my 8 guest passes. I'll receive 2 more from my wife's and my new Infinite Card.

Hopefully, I can sweet talk the attendants to stretch a few of these passes for my 4 and 8 year old sons.

Got 2 passes.

1 for Gold
1 for Infinite

Yeah, no guests in the fine print.

You could always do this:

We all know this trick, but to see someone take it to the extreme is pretty funny and sad.

I have two of these passes. I only fly J or F redemptions, so they're up for grabs.

No pass yet here either. So far, not very impressed with the switch over from CIBC to TD. I applied online for the Infinite with TD (same as I have with CIBC) and they have cut my limit by almost half. If they do this with our business card, there is going to be some big trouble.

LOL!

That's definitely working the system to the T. 300 times use of the lounge and getting a full refund on the J/F ticket is sweet.

My wife's CIBC card will remain at CIBC. Anyone receive the CIBC lounge pass yet, who has carried the card over?

Carry the 4 yr old. Have your wife hold the hand of the 8yr old. It'll be difficult for them to say the 2 kids have to wait outside the lounge.

I have two CIBC cards - a personal Aerogold VISA infinite card, and a business Aerogold card. For both, I received a TD letter, about transitioning to a TD card. For both, I received (in the envelope with the letter talking about transitioning between CIBC to TD cards) this type of Guest Pass to MLL, if flying on an Aeroplan award. I do not understand why this MLL pass had to be restricted to an Aeroplan award.
