To upgrade a tango one way is 21 eups + a steep co-pay so 5 or 10 does not do me much good. If they expire Feb 28th, they'll be a waste.
So I was looking at the other select privilege for the bonus AP miles:
"Altitude Bonus with Air Canada and select airline partners
Choose this Select Privilege and earn 35% Bonus Aeroplan Miles on eligible flights operated by Air Canada, Air Canada Express, Air Canada Rouge, Copa Airlines and United. Also earn a 25% bonus on eligible flights operated by Austrian, brussels airlines, Lufthansa and Swiss.
This bonus applies to Aeroplan Miles earned for distance flown between January 1 and December 31, 2017. Note that if you qualify for a higher status with Early Recognition, the bonus applies as of when your status is confirmed by email. Bonus Aeroplan Miles are not Altitude Qualifying Miles and do not count towards reaching Altitude status."
Does anyone know if you get a bonus on ALL the flights you booked so far this year in 2017 or just the ones between the time that you select this privilege and the end of 2017? So for me would be that one tango fare I have. Also does that mean anything booked for Jan-Feb (if i was to book something) wouldn't get any bonus then?
The % bonus is for any flight posted to your account "AFTER" you got your status or you selected your Bundle. So, you can calculate if it is worth it for you or not for any flights you will be taking from now to Dec 12. If you do not have any flight, then this option will actually be useless to you.
For the eUpg, it will be best to have them expire in 2019, so, it will be best if you can select your bundle until we got confirmation that eUpg will be expire in 2019. Can you confirm exactly when will your flight that will get you to E50K?
