¹ This offer only applies to new applications for an RBC Avion Visa Infinite Privilege credit card (“Eligible Credit Card”) received between “May 7, 2026” and “July 15, 2026” (“Offer Period”) and approved by Royal Bank of Canada (“Royal Bank”) subject to the conditions below. Additional cardholders(s) (co-applicant and authorized user(s)) on the Eligible Credit Card account, as well as existing cardholders on any RBC Royal Bank personal credit card account transferring to an Eligible Credit Card account during the Offer Period, are not eligible for the offer.

35,000 welcome Avion points (“Welcome Points”) will appear on your monthly credit card statement within sixty (60) days after your application has been approved, provided that your RBC Avion Visa Infinite Privilege credit card account (“Credit Card Account”) remains open and in good standing at the time the Welcome points are credited to your account, “good standing” meaning that your Credit Card Account must not be past due for more than two (2) consecutive credit card account statement periods, closed, charged off or in credit revoked status.

You will receive 20,000 bonus Avion points (“Bonus Points”) if a total of $5,000 or more (“Qualifying Transaction Amount”) in qualifying net purchases and/or pre-authorized bill payment transactions (“Qualifying Transactions”) are posted to your Credit Card Account within the first six (6) months from your Credit Card Account opening date (“Period”). The Bonus Points will appear on your monthly credit card statement within sixty (60) days after you reach $5,000 in Qualifying Transactions, provided your Credit Card Account remains open and in good standing at the time the Bonus Points are credited to your account.

Qualifying Transactions exclude cash advances (including balance transfers, cash-like transactions and bill payments that are not pre-authorized charges that you set up with a merchant), interest charges and fees, and credits for returns and adjustments posted to your Credit Card account during the Period will reduce the amount of your Qualifying Transactions.

45,000 additional Avion points (“Anniversary Points”) will appear on your monthly credit card statement within twelve (12) to sixteen (16) weeks after the one-year anniversary of your account opening, provided that your account remains open and in good standing at the time the Anniversary Points are credited to your account.

If you close or change your Credit Card Account for another type of RBC Royal Bank credit card before the Welcome Points, the Bonus Points and/or the Anniversary Points have been credited to your account, you may lose the benefit of this offer. This offer may not be combined or used in conjunction with any other offer. Royal Bank reserves the right to cancel, modify or withdraw this offer at any time without notice, even after your application has been approved, including if we suspect that you may be manipulating or abusing it, or engaging in any suspicious or fraudulent activity, as determined by Royal Bank in its sole discretion.

² The calculation of lounge value (Visa Airport Companion Program, hosted and managed by DragonPass International Ltd.) is based on the comparable cost of direct enrollment in the program for membership by a Primary cardholder, which costs $99 USD and includes one complimentary airport lounge visit every year and the cost of additional 5 paid visits costing $32 USD per person, per visit. At an approximate exchange rate of $1.37 USD as of July 19, 2024.

³ The value of up to $2,375 is based on (i) the estimated value of $375 for six complimentary global airport lounge access passes, and (ii) the redemption value of 100,000 Avion points based on the Air Travel Redemption Schedule for a round-trip long flight from any major gateway in Canada or the U.S. to almost anywhere in Asia, Australia, New Zealand, South Pacific, Middle East, Africa and South America, with a maximum ticket price of $2,000.

There are a variety of ways to redeem RBC Avion points for a high value.

As a transferable currency, RBC Avion points can be converted into British Airways Executive Club^† and Cathay Pacific Asia Miles^† at a 1:1 ratio, WestJet Rewards^† at a 100:1 ratio, as well as American Airlines AAdvantage^† at a 1:0.7 ratio.

Avios, Asia Miles, and AAdvantage will all provide a means to book business class and First Class flights on Oneworld airlines, which will be by far the best value for your Avion points if you're interested in travelling internationally in style.

Look out for 10–50% transfer bonuses to these partners too, which can boost the value of your points even further.

These can be some of highest value uses of RBC Avion points. If you signed up via the current offer for 70,000 Avion points, for example, and transferred the points over to Avios during a 30% promotion, you'd get 91,000 Avios — good for a number of short-haul flights, a one-way flight in Qatar Airways Qsuites from North America to Doha, or enough to make solid progress towards a multi-carrier ticket.

You can also redeem via the Air Travel Redemption Schedule^†, which lets you use Avion points to book round-trip economy class tickets departing from Canada, up to a certain maximum ticket price. As a baseline, you can also apply Avion points to any travel purchase at a rate of 1 cent per point^†.

With this card, you can also redeem your Avion points for business class or First Class flights at a rate of 2 cents per point. If you can find a great deal on premium flights, this can make for a very valuable redemption!

Your RBC Avion points never expire for as long as you're a cardholder^†. If you cancel or switch to a different RBC^® product, you have 90 days to redeem your Avion points before they go away^†.
