This award availability popped up for April 15, 2026, on the Chicago O'Hare to London Heathrow route. At 70,000 miles, it's a solid value compared to the roughly 110,000 miles Aeroplan typically charges for transatlantic business class on this corridor.
Only two seats are showing at this rate, so this works well for a couple but won't accommodate a larger family on a single booking. The $107 in taxes and fees is reasonable for a London-bound flight—some programs tack on significantly higher surcharges for UK arrivals.
If you don't have Aeroplan miles on hand, remember that the program partners with Chase Ultimate Rewards, American Express Membership Rewards, Capital One, and Bilt Rewards for transfers. Aeroplan is also part of Star Alliance, so this redemption may route you on partner metal depending on the specific flight.
One practical note: April is shoulder season in London, meaning fewer crowds and milder weather than peak summer. It's a particularly good window for families looking to visit without battling tourist congestion.
