Also it is not 35 days, it is 30 days. Promotion period start Mar. 11 to Apr. 10. So no camping ESSO before next monday.
Also Star Alliance flight will be ok to buy before then, as long as you fly in the period, but only 3 star per partner "Regardless" how many segment you flew.

not interested in earning MORE Aeroplan points especially where it takes any effort. I have decoupled links to things like Sobey's, Hilton etc where I now can get cash back and other rewards that are (right now) more valuable. It will take a lot more than a Star Challenge Promo to get me interested.

2 stars: for every $1,000 spent in purchases on your CIBC Aeroplan-affiliated Credit Card from March 11 to April 10, 2013 (up to 10 Stars)
Sucks. Already spend ~$1000 this month and trying not to spend anymore.

This is the second consecutive promo where flights have to be booked in the promo period to be eligible.
Apparently this year you can track your stars directly from the site. A definitely improvement from last year where you had to call in!

Can't really blame them for this. I was thinking that last year whoever came up with the rules must have gotten fired.

SHHHHH... if you're doing 3 or more in a go 75k to 100k is definitely worth the work.
