Just booked SEA-DXB-KUL business class, going at 87.5K for November, SGN can be had for same price. Same itin will be at least 120K once they update the award chart for EK. All business awards to SE Asia has dried up for mid November out of YVR, and SEA has only a couple options left (TK flight to KUL available for 115K)
In my opinion…a partnership that add nothing to frequent flyers.
That aeroplan award chart to book EK is non-sense. A huge tons of points that can be booked with less milles and more inventory thru the same EK program.
Not to mention EK didn’t give AC any first class award space.
A parternship that born already dead…
You’re able to book Emirates at the same cost of other partner business class flights until early 2023, without any carrier-imposed surcharges.
As we mentioned in the article, EK First Class is coming to Aeroplan in early 2023.
Thanks T.J.
I’m not much confident about a good redeption value considering the actual dinamic award chart they offering for EK flights with AC points. But let see with what they come up (I guess there will be a tons of points required)
Quick Question: can we apply the Aeroplan 50% off Priority awards to these trips with Emirates like any other AP redemptions? 2 Worldwide Business class cabin rewards would save huge – as well as present some potentially remarkable trips with Emirates I’d probably never pay for in the real world.
Yes, we’ve confirmed that you’re currently able to redeem Priority Rewards for Emirates flights in economy and business class, and this will continue to be the case as Aeroplan transitions to the pricing in the Emirates award chart.

I see space on Emirates Skywards at the saver level that’s not being shown on Aeroplan. What gives?
Aeroplan might not have access to the same inventory as on Skywards, but there’s plenty of award space available throughout the calendar year.
