If you are a Chase Sapphire Reserve primary cardholder, Aeroplan is offering you an easy way to save points on your next award flight. For a limited time, you can claim a Flight Reward Certificate worth 5,000 Aeroplan points simply by registering. There is no spending requirement and no need to book right away, but you must act before the deadline.
The registration window is open from August 5, 2025, at 12:01 AM EST through August 18, 2025, at 11:59 PM EST. Once you register, Aeroplan will deposit the certificate into your account within 14 days, and it will be valid for 365 days from the date it is issued.

What the certificate offers
The Flight Reward Certificate will reduce the base fare in points for a single Aeroplan flight reward ticket by up to 5,000 points. It can be applied to flights on Air Canada or partner airlines, as long as the booking is made directly through Aeroplan’s website, mobile app, or call center.
Key details:
- One certificate per Aeroplan account and per Chase Sapphire Reserve account
- Only primary cardholders qualify (authorized users are not eligible)
- The first and last name on your Aeroplan account must match your Chase Sapphire Reserve account exactly
- Certificate cannot be split between travelers or combined with other points-based discount certificates
- Taxes, government fees, partner booking fees, and other applicable charges still apply and must be paid separately
If the award ticket costs more than 5,000 points, you simply pay the difference from your Aeroplan balance. If it costs less, there is no residual value to carry over.
How to register and use it
The process is quick:
- If you are not an Aeroplan member, enroll for free.
- Go to the registration page during the promotional period.
- Enter your first and last name, Aeroplan number, and the last four digits of your Chase Sapphire Reserve card.
- Accept the Terms and Conditions and click “Register now.”
Once in your account, you have a full year to decide when to use the certificate. If you cancel your ticket, the certificate can be re-deposited with its original expiration date as long as your account is in good standing. If any part of the ticket is flown, the certificate is considered fully used.
Why you should claim it now
This is a no-cost way to get more value from your Aeroplan points. Even if you do not know when you will travel, registering now locks in the benefit for the next 12 months. Since Aeroplan partners with many global airlines, you will have options for both short and long-haul flights.
Only primary Chase Sapphire Reserve cardholders are eligible for this promotion. The card also allows you to transfer points to Aeroplan at a 1:1 ratio, which can help you boost your balance for future bookings.
Why the Chase Sapphire Reserve Stands Out
Beyond this Aeroplan promotion, the Chase Sapphire Reserve comes with a premium set of travel and lifestyle perks that add value year-round. Chase values the current Sapphire Reserve benefits package at more than $2,700 a year, based on the full range of credits, perks, and rewards available. Cardholders earn high points on travel and dining, enjoy access to the Chase Sapphire Lounge by The Club network, and can transfer points to Aeroplan and other partners at a 1:1 ratio.
Notable benefits include:
- 8x points on Chase Travel purchases and 4x points on flights and hotels booked direct
- $300 annual travel credit and $300 annual dining credit
- Access to over 1,300 airport lounges worldwide, including Sapphire Lounges and select Air Canada Maple Leaf Lounges when flying Star Alliance
- Comprehensive travel protections including primary rental car coverage and trip cancellation
- New Points Boost program that can make points worth up to 2x on select flights and hotels booked through Chase Travel
These benefits, combined with its strong earning rates and transfer options, make the Chase Sapphire Reserve a powerful card for travelers who want both premium perks and flexible rewards.

The Bottom line
If you are a primary Chase Sapphire Reserve cardholder, this 5,000-point Aeroplan Flight Reward Certificate is an easy win. Registration takes less than a minute, costs nothing, and gives you a full year to put the savings toward your next award flight. Make sure you register before August 18, 2025 so you do not miss out.
