While Aeroplan's days are numbered, at least they're slowly starting to make some minor improvements. They recently fixed their issues with accessing Swiss and Air China awards, and have now fixed one other major frustration I have.

Wish other airlines or rather ffp's would do/offer the same service for their partner/alliance awards. Cause right now for AA & UA, you have to call em up to find the other confirmation number.

The best solution (if possible) would obviously be a unified/master PNR regardless of airline or program the flights are booked from.

Wow, so many "technical issues" being resolved and "new features" being added to ErrorPlan AFTER the announcement by AC.

Too little, too late.

I find it's often much easier just to DM the airline you booked the award with on Twitter and ask for the operating airline's confirmation number. It's a lot more efficient than calling.

Looks good but the app crashes when you ask for details and the website does not respond when you try to see details

Delta does this for a few partners, but they really need to expand it to all partners. It's very inefficient to have to call for every partner PNR.

Finally! I think by the time they are toast, they will have the best booking platform on the market. They will probably try and sell it...
