When using AC Wallet as a form of payment, credits with the closest expiration date will be deducted first from your AC Wallet.

Can AC Wallet credit expiration dates be extended?

AC Wallet credits/expiration dates cannot be extended. Reservations need to be made by the expiration date.

Where can I use my AC Wallet?

All your transactions, including the expiry date associated with each of your credits, are clearly listed on your AC Wallet for quick and easy reference anytime.

* AC Wallet is not available for Economy Basic fares. Other exceptions apply. See complete terms and conditions.

Admissibility

AC Wallet is linked to an Aeroplan account. To qualify for the AC Wallet and redeem credits, you must be an Aeroplan Member in good standing. If you are not an Aeroplan Member, you can  enroll today. Membership is free. View the Aeroplan program general Terms and Conditions.

Credit in AC Wallet must be used by the expiration date, unless it does not expire, as indicated in the AC Wallet or at time of issuance. Creditable taxes, and third-party fees and charges do not expire. Travel can occur after the expiry date.

If an Aeroplan account is closed, all funds remaining in AC Wallet shall be forfeited.

Transferability

Once logged in one AC Wallet, credits cannot be logged in another AC Wallet instead. However, AC Wallet can be used to purchase an eligible travel booking for another person. In the event of cancellation, the value of the booking shall not be logged in the purchaser's AC Wallet, as the credit(s) associated with the new booking belongs to the ticketed passenger(s).

Redemption

AC Wallet can be used as a form of payment:

  • To purchase flights
  • On our website, via the Air Canada mobile app, or by contacting us directly at 1 (888) 247-2262 (other numbers).

Except as otherwise stated herein, the services purchased from Air Canada by using credits tracked in AC Wallet shall be subject to the General Conditions of Carriage of Air Canada.

Changes to your reservation and credit creation

When you make a change to your booking, you can either:

  1. Track the entire booking in one AC Wallet
    One ticketed passenger tracks the entire value of the tickets and refundable travel options for all passengers to their AC Wallet.
  1. Each passenger individually tracks credits in their respective AC Wallets
    Each ticketed passenger tracks the unused value of their tickets and refundable travel options in their respective AC Wallets.

The credit will be tracked in the currency in which the ticket was purchased, if it is purchased in one of the following currencies: AUD, CAD, CHF, CNY, DKK, EUR, GBP, HKD, INR, JPY, KRW, NOK, SEK, TWD, USD. If the ticket is issued in an unsupported currency, the credit will be converted to a supported currency corresponding to that of the Aeroplan account.

AC Wallet currency will be mapped to the country of residence of the Aeroplan profile. Any unsupported currency will be mapped to a supported currency. Credits logged in AC Wallet will be in either the currency of the country of residence specified in the Aeroplan profile or a supported currency, depending on the situation.

If the country of residence in the Aeroplan account changes, the currency balance will not be updated. Once the balance reaches $0, any new credits will be issued in the currency of the new country of residence.

Currency conversion rates to be used are those valid on the date of original ticket issuance.

Changes to your reservation may be subject to a penalty fee, as per fare rules of the ticket the credit is associated with. The applicable penalty is deducted from the total creditable amount.

If you make changes to reservations that were purchased with your AC Wallet, the value of the unused ticket will be credited and logged back to your AC Wallet. It is important to note that the credit will retain the expiry date of the original ticket.

Tickets purchased on behalf of an infant or child will be logged in the AC Wallet of a selected adult on the same booking.

Just like the tickets they are associated with, credits are non-refundable. They cannot be extended or exchanged for cash.
