Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think I'd still have to pay the fee with a product switch? If I could get it FYF I'd probably do that, but I don't think I'm interested enough to pay that fee for more Avios points, mostly because their long haul redemptions are too high. I'don't have much interest in the WestJet card either.

I remember reading things years ago about being able to go another bank with your Infinite Visa and getting them to give you their cards FYF even when they weren't normally doing that. I'm not sure if it was just a perk of holding an Infinite Visa or if they required you to cancel you're current card. I'd be ok cancelling mine. Does anyone if TD or CIBC are doing this for RBC Avion cardholders at the moment? I don't currently have any products with TD or CIBC so I have no leverage that way.
