✨AI Recommendation

Based on your portfolio and this route, I recommend the **Amex → Aeroplan transfer with 20% bonus** (#1). Here's why: - **Excellent value**: At 2.84¢/point, this beats typical Aeroplan redemptions (1.5-2.0¢) and is well above cash value - **20% transfer bonus**: Amex is running a promotion, so you only need 62,500 MR points instead of 75,000 - **You can book now**: You have 85,000 MR points in your portfolio—plenty to cover this - **Minimal cash**: Just $238 CAD in taxes/fees (vs $3,200+ for cash tickets) **The trade-off**: You'll need to transfer points (1-2 days) and deal with 1 connection. If you prefer nonstop and can pay cash, #2 (AC003 direct) is your simplest option. **Alternative if you have eUpgrade credits**: #3 uses 40 eUpgrade credits + $925 total out-of-pocket for a nonstop flight. Great if you're building Air Canada status and already have the credits.
