This award seats one passenger in business class on the Los Angeles to Tokyo Narita route, departing August 3, 2026. The 102,500-mile price comes in about 7% below the typical rate of roughly 110,000 miles you'd normally see for this pairing through Aeroplan.
The savings aren't dramatic, but for a popular summer route to Japan, any discount is worth considering. August remains peak travel season for families, and award space to Tokyo can be difficult to find during this window.
One important caveat: only a single seat is available at this price. That makes this option best suited for solo travelers or as a starting point if you're piecing together separate itineraries for family members. If you need multiple seats, you'll want to keep searching or consider positioning to a different departure city.
Transfer partners for Aeroplan include American Express Membership Rewards, Chase Ultimate Rewards, Capital One, and Bilt Rewards, all at a 1:1 ratio. If you're short on miles, topping off your balance with a points transfer is straightforward.
