Since Aeroplan is a member of Star Alliance, there are often great ways to <a href=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.com\/guide\/how-to-maximize-aeroplan-miles\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">maximize your points<\/a> by booking transatlantic business-class flights to Europe for as low as 60,000 Aeroplan points. A night at some Marriott properties, on the other hand, can cost well over 60,000 Bonvoy points, thanks to <a href=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.com\/news\/marriott-dynamic-pricing-here\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Marriott&#8217;s dynamic pricing<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>However, if you have some Aeroplan points you don&#8217;t plan to use in the near future, or you&#8217;re short a few points for a Marriott redemption, this is a good option.
