While I probably can get the 275k in time it seems like an awful waste, but it's still ~1% of purchases. Better than the CIBC/RBC gold rewards for gift cards like we used to do (.8%).
How far in advance does AP release seats?
PS when is CIBC going to release a 1.5 card!!! amex is usless for the business spending we do so their 1.5 card is out.
Most of the award seats around that time are probably gone by now. FYI, I booked my Christmas Aeroplan ticket in early Feb.
12/27 YYZ-CUN 11am flight has one more Econo seat.
