This award prices at roughly 7% below the usual 110,000 miles you'd expect to pay for business class between Los Angeles and Tokyo on Aeroplan. It's not the deepest discount we've seen, but for families planning a summer 2026 trip to Japan, any savings on a premium cabin helps stretch your points further.
The flight departs August 18, 2026, which falls during peak summer travel season when award availability to Japan is notoriously tight. Only 4 seats are currently showing, so this is best suited for couples or small families who can book together.
Aeroplan miles transfer instantly from American Express Membership Rewards, Capital One, and Chase Ultimate Rewards, making this accessible if you need to top off your balance. Keep in mind that Aeroplan's dynamic pricing means this rate could shift, so if the dates work for your schedule, it's worth locking in sooner rather than later.
One practical tip: before transferring points, search the availability directly on Air Canada's site to confirm the seats are still there. Transfer only what you need once you're ready to book.
