“How Do I Add My Aeroplan or Frequent Flyer Number to an Air Canada Booking?

Whether you just booked a flight or plan to fly soon, adding your Aeroplan or partner frequent flyer number is one of the simplest ways to earn points and unlock travel perks. Many passengers forget to link their account until check-in — but doing it early ensures you never miss out on valuable miles, upgrades, or priority services.



If you need quick help linking your frequent flyer profile or confirming that your Aeroplan number is attached correctly, you can call ☎️(877-764-3622) for direct support from Air Canada’s customer service.



Here’s how to add or update your number easily, no matter how you booked.



1. Add It During Online Booking

When purchasing your ticket on AirCanada.com or through the mobile app:

Look for the “Passenger Details” section.
Enter your Aeroplan number or any Star Alliance partner loyalty number (e.g., United MileagePlus, Lufthansa Miles & More).
Confirm it appears on your confirmation screen before final payment.

Pro Tip: Always double-check spelling and format — even a missing digit can prevent miles from posting.



2. Add It After Booking (Online)

If you forgot to include your frequent flyer number while booking:

Visit AirCanada.com → My Bookings.
Enter your booking reference and last name.
Click “Edit Passenger Information.”
Enter or update your Aeroplan or partner number, then save changes.

You can also do this in the Air Canada app under “Trips.” Updates appear instantly and sync to your boarding pass.



3. Add It via Customer Support

If your flight was booked through a travel agent or third-party site, you might not be able to edit details online. In that case:

Call Air Canada at ☎️(877-764-3622) and provide your reservation code.
Ask the representative to manually attach your Aeroplan or Star Alliance number.
Confirm it’s linked before check-in to ensure mileage credit.

This is especially useful for codeshare flights, where Air Canada operates the flight but the ticket was purchased under another airline’s code.



4. Add It at the Airport

If all else fails, you can still add your frequent flyer number at check-in:

Visit a self-service kiosk and select “Add Loyalty Program.”
Or speak with an Air Canada agent at the check-in counter.
They can scan your Aeroplan card or input the number directly before issuing your boarding pass.



5. Retroactive Mileage Credit

Forgot entirely until after the flight? Don’t worry — Air Canada allows retroactive mileage claims within 12 months.

Log in to your Aeroplan account and go to “Request Missing Points.”
Enter your ticket number or boarding pass info.
Points usually post within 3–5 business days once verified.



FAQs

Q3. What if my number doesn’t show on my boarding pass?
Call (877-764-3622) before boarding to have it manually added.



Conclusion



Adding your Aeroplan or frequent flyer number to an Air Canada booking is quick but essential for maximizing your travel rewards. You can do it online, through the app, by phone, or even at the airport.



Don’t risk missing out on valuable miles — confirm that your loyalty account is linked before you fly. If anything looks incorrect or you can’t update it online, reach out at ☎️(877-764-3622) for immediate help and ensure your rewards are secured.”
