One of my favorite things about Air Canada Aeroplan is the emphasis that the program has on adding partners. Aeroplan has more airline partners than any other airline frequent flyer program. We’ve seen several partners added in the past couple of years, includingEtihad,Azul,Vistara,Air Serbia,Virgin Australia, Air Dolomiti, Eurowings Discover, Gulf Air, Oman Air, Air Mauritius,…

This is exciting! I have never heard about this airline either but more options to connect to this part of the country is always a good thing.
For a second, I thought PAL Airlines referred to Philippine Airlines or its subsidiary PAL Express. Either way, it would otherwise be a logical partnership.
First glance at their route map: That's not what Eastern Canada looks like.
Second look: Ah, they've sunken the US under the ocean.
Oh, Canada.
Be honest - who thought this was about another PAL - Philippine Airlines? PR flies YYZ and YVR-MNL so why not?
Out of topic, but since you have talked about this before and live in MIA like me, are you gonna cover one of the few times there's been a nonstop flight from Asia to MIA?
It happened early morning in a charter flight. JAL flight from HND carrying Japanese baseball players that are going to participate in the World Baseball Classic semifinals. Flight #8800, flight time of a about 13 hours.
Lost in the excitement is the fact the scum at AC are going to massively devalue the chart for all the other domestic regional carriers including the northern ones that were unreal value.
So if you are going to Tuktoyuktak, book now.
Does that mean the aeroplan status benefits are also part of it? For example i am allowed 3 suitcases where aircanada flies, will they honour that?
Currently trying to use points to book a flight on Pal from Deer Lake to St.John's and it won't allow booking. After speaking to two agents they say it has been a system problem since Mar 16 when the Aeroplan and Pal joined. No date to resolve. So stuck paying the crazy cost to fly between these two cities
Good news, but does not work. Tried booking from Deer Lake to St John's which shows on Air Canada's web site, but just gives an error when booking. Aeroplan states there is an IT problem so obviously not set up yet a month after being announced/released.
Flew on pal airlines twice when aeroplan was added , they never asked for points card I would like to add my flights to plan
