Free first checked bag on Air Canada for you and up to 8 companions

Check your first bag free, up to 23 kg/50 lb, on flights operated by Air Canada, Air Canada Rouge or Air Canada Express. The benefit covers the primary cardholder, additional cardholders and up to eight travel companions on the same reservation, whether you book with points or cash.

Conditions: Travel must originate on an Air Canada flight and you must check in with Air Canada at the check-in counter before security; bags checked at the gate don't qualify. Each cardholder must link their own Aeroplan number to the card and include it on the reservation. No extra bag is given if your fare or Elite Status already includes a free one, the benefit isn't applied retroactively, and fees for additional, oversized or overweight bags still apply.
