This redemption prices out at 93,600 Aeroplan miles for a one-way business class ticket from San Francisco (SFO) to Tokyo Narita (NRT) on July 20, 2026. The $89 in taxes and fees is reasonable for a transpacific award.
For context, business class awards to Tokyo through Aeroplan typically run around 110,000 miles, so this represents a modest but worthwhile savings of roughly 16,400 miles. July is peak summer travel season for Japan, which makes finding any business class availability noteworthy.
One important caveat: there is only one seat available at this price. This makes the deal best suited for a solo traveler or someone scouting options for a points-funded trip. Families will need to keep searching for dates with more inventory.
If you have Aeroplan miles or transfer partners like American Express Membership Rewards, Chase Ultimate Rewards, or Capital One miles, this could be a solid use of your points balance for a comfortable flight to Japan.
