hi
I am a new member of Aeroplan. I would like to know how much does the miles cost in case I need some more miles for my award flight? How many miles can I buy on Aeroplan? Thank you for your answers....

Buying Miles for Flight Reward

If you are booking an on-line AE flight reward and you do not have adequate mileage in your account for the ticket you wish to purchase, the website will tell you how much you have to pay to "buy out" your mileage deficiency. It is typically about three cents per mile.

Max Mileage Purchase

You can purchase up to 50% of the total mileage required for the ticket you wish to obtain.
