My thoughts are that selling status passes is against the spirit or maybe even the letter of AC's terms around Aeroplan.

Purchasing them just encourages that behaviour. (Full disclosure: I've only ever given them away) And you are correct that there is the whole about giving your trip details to a stranger thing.

Only you can decide if the reward (and cost) is worth the perceived risk to you and your family's trip.
