Aeroplan partners, rules and regulations are subject to change without notice.

The Driver Assist service is provided by Dominion Automobile Association (DAA).

11 Aeroplan rules require at least one accumulation or redemption transaction each year in an Aeroplan account or the Aeroplan Miles will expire. CIBC has ensured that this doesn't happen to Aero Classic cardholders in good standing. Please note, however, that Aeroplan Miles will expire if they are not redeemed within 7 years from when they were earned (or by Dec. 31, 2013, for Miles earned before 2007).
