Aeroplan is showing first class award availability from San Francisco (SFO) to Tokyo Narita (NRT) on July 20, 2026. The price is 120,000 miles plus $80 in taxes and fees, with just one seat remaining at this rate.
This represents solid value compared to typical pricing. Aeroplan usually charges around 200,000 miles for first class on this route, so you're looking at savings of roughly 80,000 miles. For families pooling points or travelers who have been waiting for the right opportunity to try a premium cabin to Japan, this is worth a look.
One practical note: since only one seat is available, this works best for solo travelers. If you're hoping to book for two, this particular availability won't fit your needs. Keep in mind that July is peak summer travel season for Japan, so first class availability at any price point is relatively uncommon.
If you don't currently have enough Aeroplan miles, remember that the program partners with Chase, American Express, and Capital One, so you may be able to transfer points from those programs to top off your balance.
