Status Match from Aeroplan Elite Status to VIPorter

Porter Airlines has announced a new status match campaign that targets travellers with Aeroplan Elite Status.

Those with existing status with Air Canada, or who have earned at least 5 Status Qualifying Segments (SQS) this year, are entitled to match with an equivalent tier with Porter’s VIPorter loyalty program.

This campaign comes as Porter continues to expand its footprint across Canada with its ongoing delivery of Embraer E195-E2 aircraft operating out of Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ).

VIPorter Status Match with Aeroplan Elite Status

VIPorter has launched its latest status match campaign. 

This time, the airline is targetting passengers with Aeroplan Elite Status, or who have earned various amounts of Status Qualifying Segments so far this year.

The equivalent tiers to match based on status or SQS are broken down as follows:

• VIPorter Passport will be awarded to anyone with proof of 5 SQS.
• VIPorter Venture will be awarded to anyone with proof of Aeroplan 25K status or 8–15 SQS.
• VIPorter Ascent will be awarded to anyone with proof of Aeroplan 35K status or 16–27 SQS.
• VIPorter First will be awarded to anyone with proof of Aeroplan 50K status or higher, as well as 28+ SQS.

If you already hold status with Air Canada, or if you’ve earned over 5 SQS so far this year, and plan on flying with Porter Airlines before the end of the year, don’t miss the opportunity to score a higher tier of status and some extra benefits along your travels.

Furthermore, in the terms and conditions on the status match landing page, it’s mentioned that you may even be able to status match if your Aeroplan Elite Status expired on December 31, 2022.

Special consideration may be given to applications whose status expired on December 31, 2022 if they provide sufficient proof.

Considering that it’s possible to earn Aeroplan 25K status through Everyday Status Qualification, and it’s also possible to earn Status Qualifying Segments through spending on an Aeroplan co-branded credit card, this opportunity is one of the easiest ways to qualify for status with Porter.

If approved, your equivalent VIPorter status will last until December 31, 2023. 

To take advantage of the status match, you must:

• Sign up for a VIPorter account if you haven’t already.
• Head to the landing page, enter your information, and upload proof of status or SQS
• Wait up to three weeks for approval.
