About the Programme

What RBC Avion Rewards Points Are Really Worth

RBC Avion Rewards points book any airline with no blackout dates and transfer to British Airways Avios, Cathay Asia Miles, AAdvantage and WestJet Rewards.

RBC Avion Rewards is Canada's most flexible bank points programme. Avion points can be booked through Air Travel Redemption schedules, used on any airline with no blackout dates, or transferred to airline partners including British Airways Executive Club, Cathay Pacific Asia Miles, WestJet Rewards and American AAdvantage. Merchandise and gift cards pay under 1 cent a point; partner transfers on premium cabins are where the real value sits.

How You Earn

  • Avion points on RBC Avion Visa Infinite and Privilege card spend
  • Large welcome bonuses on Avion Visa Infinite and Business cards
  • Bonus points at Avion Rewards Shopping and partner merchants
  • Petro-Points, Rexall and other Canadian partner conversions
  • RBC banking bundles and everyday chequing account offers

Turning Points Into Flights

  • Transfer avion points into partner airline loyalty programmes
  • Use transfer bonuses to stretch your balance 15–40% further
  • Book partner award seats through the best-value programme, not the operating airline
  • Combine points with cash top-ups where taxes and surcharges are high

Best Redemption Strategies

  • Search award space before transferring — transfers are one-way and final
  • Target sweet-spot partners where the same seat costs 30–50% fewer points
  • Avoid programmes with heavy carrier-imposed surcharges on long-haul
  • Book at the 355-day mark or hunt last-minute release windows
  • Split parties across cabins or programmes to unlock more availability
