Help Needed YYZ - FNC Star Alliance

Hello All,

I am trying to maximize miles with Aeroplan in the route YYZ - FNC (Oct 17)
Two adults and one infant (10 months ) by that time
As most of you know Air Canada, TAP and Lufthansa have hefty carrier surcharges. Availability for Brussels or Swiss is very limited on Aeroplan website.

I have used in the past SATA (YYZ- LIS - FNC) or (YYZ- PDL- FNC). However, by using this choice I am burning my Amex MR at a rate of .10 which is not the most efficient one. However, the carrier surcharge was almost as the cost of the route with SATA

Since we are travelling with a baby, we'll be looking at business class or premium economy.

Any tricks/tips will be highly appreciated !!

Considering how cheap business class tickets on SATA are, and considering that it appears to be the most convenient route with only one stop, I would just buy the tickets outright and not bother with a redemption.
