This positioning is solid for anyone holding Aeroplan miles and looking to get to London next spring. Business class on the transatlantic route from LAX typically runs around 110,000 Aeroplan miles, so 90,000 represents a meaningful savings of 20,000 miles.
The catch: only one seat is available at this price. That makes this a solo traveler opportunity rather than a family booking. If you're flexible and can travel alone, it's worth a look. For families, this serves as a useful benchmark—similar availability may pop up on other dates if you search nearby windows.
Taxes and fees come in at $113, which is relatively modest for a London-bound business class ticket. Some programs and routings can carry fuel surcharges of $500 or more, so this is a reasonable cash outlay on top of your miles.
A practical tip: Aeroplan allows you to hold award bookings for a short period before ticketing. If you're on the fence, check whether a hold is available so you can confirm your plans before committing your miles.
