Hello, I’m new to your channel. Can you advise what CC is best to have if I planned to travel international to Japan London and Manila from Canada.

Hey wonderful review, just wanted to say Cantonese is a spoken dialect. On paper it is always just known as Chinese.

Thank you so much for this video! It was so helpful

Für AUH to Doha no Thanks

If you have to worry about the annual fee and perks then this card is not for you. What dont you understand? BTW, it's a CHARGE CARD, not a credit card ...

Which other card would you recommend to pair with the cobalt card ?

Great channel you earned a sub. Sad to see Swiss redesign because 60k Aeroplan for business in winter is so cheap hope it doesn’t increase

Just so you know, your voice sounds amazing in Shorts without vocal fry

National Bank’s world elite card also give 5 points per dollars for groceries and restaurant purchase

Being a taller than average human doesn’t make the doors a gimmick for 80% of the rest of the population

if everyone has their shade shut and yours is open, i think you know the answer to that question. Its infuriating especially considering the whole point of many of these flight times is to keep you on schedule and lessen the jet lag.

Great idea !!! Thanks for this comment !!! Abd for sure that making delivery Costco instead of going and getting 200 items more than you initially planned lol

We flew to HK by executive first which is today’s business class. We didn’t even eat at the lounge. We thought we had to pay. We were peasants. Overall, good service, enjoyed our flight to HK, my birth place.

Is there a chart that shows the most expensive airport fees

Sure, YVR (Vancouver) is cute, but it is TINY. And they still have not figured out the security line/check: it is always backed up! PS: next time spare yourself the struggle and disappointment with Air Canada, fly Cathay to HK.

Pro tip - 🎉get the rbc ion+ where you 3x the points on major spending categories like groceries and gas and can transfer the premium point to elite point at a rate of 1:1

i was on the a330 this past summer and i agree with the review the only good thing on this plane is food and service, everything else was just awful and soo outdated. was very disappointed for the price.

One big Prolix

So let's say you wanna book through Qatar's program, you transfer avion points to british airways avios then to Qatar's program?

Swissair went out of business on March 31, 2002. The name of the airline that you flew on was SWISS - the clue is painted on every aircraft in the fleet. I've flown on both.

Hey, Can you please try to upload in 4k if possible?

Hello Graham ! With the amex platinum canadian card will the Priority pass card going to mention Select like the american version or not ?

The name of the airline is Swiss (LX), NOT Swissair. Swissair (SR) was the old Swiss airline which no longer exists.

A bit dramatic??? More product, less self???

How do you transfer your points?

Would you apply for the Green Card? It doesn't earn so much but it has a decent welcome bonus and no annual fee

Love it but try to talk a little bit away from mic and less vocal fry. It kinda spoils the pleasant experience watching your video

3:39 you get 1.25 points on all "Travel" MCC codes not just through the RBC portal

How's the postal strike affecting the applied card mailing?

Don’t believe Amex Plantium has 2X on Grocery like Amex Gold card, you only get 2X points on Restaurant, food delivery platforms & travel.

If I have 100,000 points with Aeroplan should I just redeem it for a gift card or go on a trip?

Love the humor and Aladdin references 🤭 interested in knowing how many points this cost

Love your videos. As someone who works out of Winnipeg Are you always just flying to either Toronto or Vancouver before flying international? Are there any other options? What are the cheapest ways to do so? I want to fly to Tokyo and then to Thailand eventually out of Winnipeg. Any tips or tricks?

My husband and I are looking to go to Japan next fall, traveling from Vancouver. We have a lot of avión points saved up up - would you recommend transferring to BA then? Using Japan air? We were also looking at booking flights to Europe directly through the avión site, but they wanted 65,000 points + $800+ CAD, which was the same price as paying cash. Is it ever a good deal to book directly through avión site or only when transferring to partners?

So….. I actually designed the AC lounge! I’ve worked in the lounge world for a long time. First, no alcohol before 11am is a BC liquor law. If the sky team lounge is serving it, they are breaking the law! As a regular traveller, I think airports should be exempt, but I don’t make the laws. I’ve been to the sky team lounge several times and it is so lame compared to AC. Lastly re your complaint about not having access to the whole airport-you need to understand that unlike American airports, at yvr (&yyz) you can actually make a seamless connection from another country to an international flight (ie, the US via YVR to HKG) without going into Canada & out again. This puts on par with European & Asian airports, but precludes you from access to the whole airport….

Everyone i the airport limits alcohol cause one on the ground is 2 in the sky due to blood thinning in elevation. Its about safety

What about re apply the card? Is it still worth it? Because no welcome bonus:(

For someone living in Canada, is the the US or Canadian platinum the better option?

RBC didn't really think it through, these points are way too hard to use without going to the US first

do you have to pay for food and drinks or are they all complementary?

Love your content and I watch 'em all! But I believe there are some inaccuracies in this video. RBC Avion Infitite earns 1.25 points on all travel coded purchases not just through the RBC travel portal. Also all "Visa Infinite Avion" cards earn Elite Points. The "Ion" cards earn Premium. Premium points can't transfer to as many airline partners (only West Jet) as Elite points.

interesting...so when you say "you booked a flight on xx airline"...did you book it on Avion website, or on the specific airline website? and if on the specific airline website, how did you do that? Can you share pls?

I'm guessing Avion and Aeroplan are not a good mix at all right?

Your videos are so helpful! Keep them coming.

I would not pick a seat backed into a galley or lavatory. I did this and had to listen to the flight attendants chat, giggle and gossip for 7 hrs.

How to you get your use out of the $200 travel credit which is only available through the Amex Portal if you are transferring your points to partnered airlines?

how can i use this card in real canadian superstore ?

This didnt work for me

Thanks for the video, very well done. I was quite surprised and disappointed to learn the card comes with a 2.5% foreign transaction fee, despite the annual fee being so high. (The US version does not have a foreign transaction fee),

Do you think this card is still worth it even if I don’t spend the 10k? I travel about 5 times a year and this would be my first travel card but I don’t have any big purchases coming up to meet the requirements for the welcome bonus points.
