Q: For the May-September Europe portion of this promo, which flights does it apply to?
sub-Q1: Does it apply to flights to and from Europe?
A: Yes, both. Initially, AC's English-language was somewhat confusing and only mentioned flights "to" Europe, but it was later clarified that both to and from qualify.
sub-Q2: Does it apply on all flights on a booking to/from Europe?
A: No, only the flights that touch Europe will count. So, for example, on a YYC-YYZ-FCO booking, only YYZ-FCO would qualify for the bonus. Note: that the flight must be operated by AC to qualify for the promo.
Q: If I buy a fare that earns 150% SQM, will I receive 250% or 300%?
A: You will receive 300%.
The first sweep only had the 100% bonus applied to the base rate, and not the COS bonus, so in this instance, you would receive 250%. They are now retroactively adding the COS bonus, and nearly everyone seems to have received it. The second sweep applied the 100% bonus to the total, so you would receive 300% right away.
Q: Has anyone received the 5k SQM, 5 SQS, 500 SQD from Part 1 yet?
A: Yes, but not everyone. Those began to post June 2, and were back-dated to April 20th in Aeroplan's list of activities.
Q: Has anyone received the bonus on Europe flights after April 30?
A: Yes, but not everyone.
Q: Okay, then what is the most recent date for a Europe flight that has credited?
A: Sept 29, 2022.

FYI spoke to rep today regarding the 5K SQM from AC Vacation package (SE Bonus) not posting from this spring. They stated there is a system wide issue which has been escalated.

No. On two flights that I had to submit manually I had to email [email protected] for the bonus and then they came through on a subsequent sweep.
Not sure how crediting my Europe bonus is gonna work when my flights will most likely post after September 30.

I only waited two sweeps and then got impatient. It’s quite possible credits didn’t even do anything if yours got posted automatically.

Did the “Monday sweep” come through for anyones flights from last couple weeks today? Mrs Viper had a flight on 26th that was going to push her over to Super elite and of course it didn’t sweep today and she’s traveling on Friday. Boo.

I received my bonus SQM/SQS/SQD for my flight on September 21st in last week's "Monday sweep". I flew September 28th and my regular SQM/SQS/SQD have posted, but the bonus hasn't yet. I'm guessing the "Monday sweep" hasn't happened yet this week.
