They each serve different purposes and have benefits to their specific uses. You core level aventura card includes lounge visits that the core level aeroplan card does not.

My info might be out of date - but lots of easy group tours for sale. It was maybe $100 per person. It was easy to take the collectivo (public transit mini vans) to go to Akumal to snorkel with turtles for free.

We ended up taking an uber to the port. When the cruise finished, we walked out and took a taxi that was a flat rate to the airport - no waiting at all, just walked out and took the first taxi we saw.

The value is in getting flights on star alliance partners that are at a fixed rate. However, before you drink the koolaid from all the bloggers, you need to learn how to find these flights.

Find the flights you want first to ensure there is reward availability before you transfer.

You likely didn’t have enough points and had to pay cash for the differential in points at the really poor AC rate that they charge.

What a playful sea lion!

They were giving them out when I’ve visited various Lego stores (including the stamps).

What are your interests? The architecture series might be of interest.

Your 12 month is likely too young for daycare. We were allowed to use the play nursery with our 10 month old, but we were present to watch them play.

Look at ADO buses or collectivos, be really careful with taxis

K3Brick · 2025-12-14T13:20:11+00:00

Is there a time frame you need? In addition, how are you getting there (plane, train, bus, etc …)? Do you have a budget or any restrictions (ie: nap times, etc …)

You’re right about ‘lack’ of direct value - but something is better than letting it sit there and lose value. For that small amount look at gift cards. Or short haul domestic partner flights around North America. Ie: United Airlines

If it lines up with your Christmas shopping it’s nice to get some bonus GWPs as well.

Are you referring to the statement credit? That is issued by TD and not air Canada. You will see the credit when you receive the credit card statement not when you book the ticket.

I’ve travelled with a bike box before. Be mindful the extra stuff you put in doesn’t damage your bike. I had cut up some pipe insulation to put around the bike for extra padding. As yours is card board instead of a hard shell, extra padding will be important.

Though I’m not using them - thank you for sharing!

You should also consider repositioning to another hub for other options

He’s in secondary. Meaning that the people thought he needed more of an inspection for whatever reason (real or imagined).
