[Evil Techie]

eeeks
park&fly for a week at YVR cost about 70 CAD

i have 15,000 aeroplan miles, can i redeem them for park&fly?

i know i can earn aeroplan with park and fly but i want to redeem since i dont use my miles much

also can my dad transfer his star alliance miles to my aeroplan miles?

no

also can my dad transfer his star alliance miles to my aeroplan miles?

transfers between different programs is not permitted. don't know if they still have it, but at one time, you can transfer miles between aeroplan accounts for a cost of $0.02/mile.

15K miles is enough for a round trip short haul Y ticket.

check the rules of UA MP. he might be able to book the tickets in your name (on UA, AC, or any star alliance airline). the points do not have to be in your AP account.

my gf need has enuf AP points to cash in for the flights
so im probably better off just booking the tickets with her
