Now, all i see for that routing is 375K Aeroplan points

I mean, i understand inflation and point devaluation, etc, but that seems like a huge jump

maybe there are other options for travel for a lower J fare, but i cant find one.
The whole dynamic pricing debate is convoluted because so many more people are using points now. Id rather sit here and blame Gen Z and the bloggers.
