Latitude mileage bonus? Super confused!
Ahoy crew!
So I am currently Altitude 35k starting in May - but I am super confused on how the bonus mileage works with that status.
I selected the 35% mileage bonus with my status options - so I assume I will receive a 35% bonus on the miles I fly when booked with AC - but if I book a Latitude ticket - do I receive a 25% bonus + 35% bonus totaling 65% overall?
Any help from the pros? ^

If the base miles for the segment was 1000 miles, you'd get a total of 1600 miles (1000 + (1000 * .25) + (1000 * .35)).

Just say you flew 1,000 Altitude Qualifying Miles (AQM) on a Latitude fare...
1. You get an extra 25% AQM Class of Service (COS) bonus of 250 AQM on top of the original 1,000 AQMs for taking said flight - this counts towards status
2. You get an extra 35% non-AQM 350 bonus Aeroplan miles - this does not count towards status
So net net - you get:
1000 + 250 + 350 = 1,600 Aeroplan Miles towards your Aeroplan Distinction
1000 + 250 = 1,250 AQM towards your Air Canada status
