It's worth to use if traveling to Canada perhaps because going to major cities in USA cost almost nothing these days. A flight to Vegas costed me $ 325 CAD round trip ! A flight to Calgary is more than that when booked early with Tango fare. With Aeoroplan, you still need to pay the taxes even though you exchange points to ticket. What is 25K points of Aeroplan worth ? That varies from travel dates to travel dates ... .

Damn I hate the reward programs and yet I continue to collect them. I tried last month to book a flight for a family member from Calgary to Montreal during the week prior to Christmas, tried with Aeroplan and Airmiles as I have plenty with both. They are blacked out, I could book for 2 weeks prior to Christmas and they could fly back 10 days after Jan 1, 2017 but holiday period forget it. I checked with the airlines and yes they had plenty of seats available if I want to but the seat but with a reward, no. This is why we all end up with a lot of miles, some of which end up expiring and are never used.

Try to buy 2 one way instead of a round-trip ticket. I have done this 3 or 4 times in the past. And it worked!

Which status are you? As sometime some flights are not available but available with different status on points

This is a very good idea. I have over 100 000 aeroplan miles and i never use them since by the time i want to book a flight, the only seats left have either terrible hours or aren't available on the dates i want. But i never tried the one-way route.
