This redemption prices at 49,600 Aeroplan miles one-way in economy from LAX to SYD, with travel available on June 3, 2026. Taxes and fees come to $122, which is reasonable for a transpacific route.
The rate sits about 1% below the typical 50,000-mile pricing you'll usually see for this route through Aeroplan. It's not a dramatic discount, but the real value here is the wide-open availability—finding any award space to Australia during the Northern Hemisphere summer can be a challenge, so this is worth noting if you have flexible plans.
Aeroplan is a transfer partner of American Express Membership Rewards, Chase Ultimate Rewards, Capital One, and Bilt Rewards, giving you several options for topping off your balance if needed. Remember that Australia will be in winter during early June, so pack accordingly if you're planning outdoor activities.
