Air Canada and Bell are to give free messaging to Aeroplan members worldwide on the flag carrier’s wifi-equipped aircraft
The offer will start on May 13 and “will enable customers to send and receive text-based messages using popular messaging apps including Apple’s iMessage, Meta’s WhatsApp and Messenger, Rakuten’s Viber, and Messages by Google”, the airline said
The plan will be available to “strategic partner airline loyalty members”, meaning customers of United MileagePlus, Lufthansa Group Miles & More and Emirates Skywards, when their account numbers are associated with an Air Canada booking.
“This multi-faceted partnership with Bell will allow Air Canada customers to keep in touch with friends, family, or colleagues wherever they travel. What’s more, we’re elated that Bell will be joining as the latest Aeroplan partner, creating another way for members to travel more, and travel better,” said Mark Nasr, executive vice president, marketing and digital, and president of Aeroplan at Air Canada.
