加航卡 Aeroplan 怎么用？积分过期了怎么办？
登陆前就做好功课，买机票的时候就开好了加航卡，虽然一直也不知道有什么用，但是看见那么多人都在讨论，反正也免费，就全家每人开了一张。第一次登陆的机票都累积进去了。第二年暑假回国的也累积进去了，然后一年没有回国，收到邮件说12个月你什么动作也没有，积分要过期了。当时不懂啊，以为只有坐飞机才能累积积分。也不知道这个积分还能换的，一直就以为加航累积的积分只能用来换机票或者升舱什么的。所以硬生生的就积分给浪费了。后来才知道原来加航卡的积分可以换很多东西，而且也不是说只有坐飞机才能积分的，网上买东西，或者ESSO加油都可以累积加航里程卡的积分的。我都是2012年才知道的，但是去年回国的积分又过了12个月没有动作，今天晚上群里讨论起这个事情来，赶紧查一下，发现我和LG的又都过期浪费了。真是可惜啊。浪费了近4W的积分了。这要是换ESSO的油卡也有快300了呢。
好在18岁以下孩子的积分是不会过期的，哪怕12个月没有用过或者累计过。于是打算把孩子们卡里的积分拿来都换ESSO的加油卡了。

据说换ESSO加油卡是最合算的了。因为总是要加油的。

What happens if my miles do expire?
If your Aeroplan Miles expire, your Aeroplan Card and Aeroplan Number remain valid, so you do not need to re-enrol in the Aeroplan Program the next time you want to accumulate miles. Simply use your card and your newly earned miles will be credited to your Aeroplan Account.
Expired miles are eligible for reinstatement and you may reinstate a portion or all of your expired miles for the administrative fees of C$30 plus C$0.01 per mile reinstated (plus any applicable taxes). Please read more about our 12-month mileage expiry policy >
If you wish to reinstate your Aeroplan Miles, you can call the Aeroplan Contact Centre: 1-800-259-1473 / 1-514-395-0300.
但是按照这个 C$30 plus C$0.01 per mile reinstated实在是很不合算的啊，如果我们按照6500分换50刀来计算，每分的价值是0.00769. 那么这个买回来的价格是每分1分钱，这样显然不合算的事情不知道这个买回积分的政策还有什么意义存在。
关于这个12个月积分过期的说明。
What is the 12-month mileage expiry policy?
All miles in an account expire if the Aeroplan Member has not accumulated or redeemed Aeroplan Miles for a period of 12 consecutive months. You can visit the Overview section of Your Account page at aeroplan.com and look under Account Expiry Status to know when your miles are set to expire under the 12-month mileage expiry policy.
Are there any exceptions to the 12-month mileage expiry policy? Aeroplan Accounts belonging to minors are exempt from the 12-month mileage expiry policy. Once the member reaches 18 years of age, they will have to stay active by having a qualifying activity within a period of 12 consecutive months. There are multiple ways to stay active. Only one of the following activities is required: accumulate, redeem, donate, or transfer miles (subject to applicable fees).

CIBC offers primary CIBC Aerogold Visa Infinite, CIBC Aerogold Visa, CIBC Aerogold for Small Business and CIBC Aero Classic Visa cardholders a guarantee that their Aeroplan Miles will not expire due to inactivity, as long as they are in good standing. If the cardholder is no longer in good standing or no longer holds a CIBC Aeroplan-affiliated card and has been inactive for 12 consecutive months, then the miles in their account will expire.
Members who reach Air Canada Altitude status are also exempt from the 12-month mileage expiry policy. While a member maintains Air Canada Altitude status, their account will not expire.

总而言之就是加航卡没事的时候去ESSO加油的时候用用，就是先刷加航卡，然后信用卡，这样就有积分累计到加航卡里去。自己要是不开车的，就给朋友刷一下，反正一年里刷一次就可以了。或者兑换积分也可以的。上面写到的几种方式都可以。偏偏我和LG的都过期啦。希望大家不要像我这样哦。白白浪费了几百刀。
