RBC Avion Visa Infinite Card
The draw here is points you can book on any airline with no blackout dates, which beats co-branded Qantas or Aeroplan cards when award seats are scarce. Earn is modest though: 1.25 points per dollar on travel and 1 elsewhere, so on CAD 30,000 of mixed spend you're looking at roughly 32,000 points a year before the welcome bonus. If you only fly one airline, a dedicated co-brand card usually stretches points further; check RBC's site for the current bonus and the CAD 120 fee.
โณ Rates & fees verified June 2026 โ always confirm the current terms on the issuer's official site before applying.
