eupgrade points with Aeroplan ticket?
I’m Altitute 35k status and I’m Aeroplan Platinum status. If I book an Aeroplan economy ticket YYZ-YYJ, can I use my eupgrade points to upgrade to business class? (aka premium rouge)?

I can’t seem to find an answer to this on the AC website.

Answers from people with direct experience preferred to speculation/gripes.

Thanks!

Do you mean your eUpgrade "credits"?

This was discussed in other threads. I know I had a X class economy Aeroplan ticket. I used eUpgrade credits and a co-pay.

Also, not sure what you couldn't find on AC.com..Some info here

Thanks for the feedback. I'll call them back again during peak hours and hopefully they can resolve it over the phone.

Are you simply looking for the following thread/topic that should answer your question?

New eUpgrade Requirements! Co-pay for lower flex fares

https://www.aircanada.com/ca/en/aco/...ade-offer.html

Upgradeability for X extended to July 31, 2018 on the current promo.


Upgrades to Business Class and Premium Rouge (for applicable destinations):


Within Canada and between Canada and the U.S.

Aeroplan (Fixed Mileage -X Booking Class)
Eligible members: All Altitude members
Credits + Add-on: 0-510 mi @ 5 + $75; 511 - 1,500 mi @ 7 + $125; 1500 mi+ @ 11 + Add-on starting at $150



Added: Oh, and beware some incompetent agents - might need to HUCA if they tell you such a promo doesn't exist and that you're making things up -> AC agent: no eUpgrade possible on Aeroplan (X) economy ticket, despite current promo

Is it possible to e-upgrade a premium economy fixed mileage aeroplan award ticket? It's not in the chart so I'm assuming not?

I assume it is as it books into N. Also my PY flight is showing as available to upgrade albeit for zero credits.

I would say it’s for zero credits as I also have zero credits, but it did the same on rev Y flights in the past too.
