PreferredNet

Preferred Hotels & Resorts has partnered with Aeroplan, the loyalty program of Air Canada, to offer a unique opportunity for member hotels to tap into a high-value, travel-savvy audience. This partnership enables Aeroplan members to redeem their miles directly for hotel stays at participating Preferred properties, creating an opaque and incremental revenue stream for hotels.

With over 9 million Aeroplan members and access to 50 million annual Air Canada passengers, this program is designed to increase visibility, drive bookings, and expand reach across Canada and beyond. See more information and media examples here.
