That’s the question of the day. Are you a Gold Airmiles Collector? Do you know how to find out if you are one? What are the benefits of being a gold air miles collector?

A Gold Airmiles Collector is a person who is able to

Collect airmiles at 5 different store locations. This is a super simple thing to accomplish and I’ll name 10 locations right now (Safeway, Shell, Rona, WestJet, Budget Rent-a-car, Boston Pizza, and Airmilesshops.ca. Through Airmilesshops.ca you can actually collect from many different companies (Dell Canada, chapters.indigo.ca, Expedia, Amazon, Apple Store, TigerDirect, eBay.ca, etc…) collecting at $20 per airmile.
Collect 1000 airmiles in a calendar year. (I finished my 1,000 within the first 4 months of the year by simply shopping during the weeks best airmiles deals.)

How do you find out if you’ve qualified?

Simply login to your airmiles acount and click on the Gold Rewards Link. (I usually just do a search for Gold and click the link that it finds)

Once you’ve found this the website will tell you your current progress towards the Gold Program.

What are the benefits of being a gold member?

The best way to answer this question is to simply copy and paste from the airmiles website.

Up to 40% off the number of AIR MILES reward miles required for selected flights - updated monthly on airmiles.ca.

Save up to 700 AIR MILES reward miles on a selection of packages and tours offered by Transat Holidays, Trafalgar Tours, Insight Vacations and Contiki Holidays.

10% off paid companion tickets booked on Air Canada and Northwest Airlines.

Exciting GOLD merchandise specials available for 25% fewer reward miles.

Being a gold member is definitely a good deal especially considering it’s very little additional work. Just make sure that you always use your airmiles card and keep on collecting those miles.

Unfortunately I have misplaced (not lost, but cannot find my
card anywhere in my home) my airmiles card. My husand’s
no. is 8000 255 8904, Roy Ward 02/94. Is here a way you
could send me the amount of airmiles collected, as we are
planning a trip very soon. Also I could obviously use a new
card in case I do not locate the older card.

Second query - The Bay used to give AirMiles, when this
was discontinued they offered to have ‘their’ points if
customer asked sent to Airmiles as before. I wonder if this
has continued as I have hoped? Appreciate knowing the answer
as I use the Bay frequently

Hi Catrina,

This is actually a personal blog so you can’t actually receive a new card from me. The best way to get a new card is through the airmiles website directly.

Similarly, you can call airmiles at 1800-AIRMILES and request a new card.
