TD Aeroplan Visa Infinite Review

A free checked bag on Air Canada for you and up to eight companions is the benefit that pays the fee back. A Canadian card, in Canadian dollars.

We review cards on the terms issuers publish: APR, fees, rewards and eligibility. We do not accept payment for a favorable review. This is a Canadian card and all amounts are in Canadian dollars.

The verdict

For a Canadian family that flies Air Canada, the free first checked bag extends to as many as eight people on the same booking, which recovers the CA$139 fee in about two trips. Thirteen insurance coverages and a NEXUS fee credit deepen the case. The earn rate is modest for a premium travel card, and there is no lounge access at this tier.Jump to:Full review

Full review

This is a Canadian card in Canadian dollars, included here for readers who bank in Canada. It sits in the middle of TD's Aeroplan lineup, above the Platinum and below the Infinite Privilege, and it is the version most Air Canada flyers end up with.

The checked bag benefit is what makes the arithmetic work. A free first bag applies to the cardholder and up to eight companions travelling on the same reservation, which turns a fee most cards charge per person into nothing for an entire family. Two round trips for two people covers the CA$139 fee outright. The NEXUS credit, worth up to CA$100 per cardholder, does a similar job in the first year, and the insurance package is one of the deeper ones at this price.

The weakness is the earn rate. Fifteen points per ten dollars on gas, groceries and Air Canada, and one point per dollar on everything else, is unremarkable for a premium travel card. Aeroplan points hold their value best when redeemed for Air Canada flights, so if you rarely fly the airline the rewards side of this card will disappoint. There is also no lounge access here; that starts at the Infinite Privilege tier, at a much higher fee. Eligibility requires CA$60,000 in personal income or CA$100,000 household.
