Our Verdict
If you earn 50k miles then you’ll get Altitude Prestige 25k status valid through 2021. This is their basic level of status and really isn’t that useful unless you’re planning to fly with Aeroplan. There aren’t any U.S. based Aeroplan credit cards, but you can transfer points from Capital One & American Express transfer to Aeroplan.
