My rant of the day...frequent flyer rewards programs!

Specifically Aeroplan!

We might be planning a vacation to Italy in the fall. I've got a ton of Aeroplan points so I thought I'd check that avenue out first for flights.

So here it is....two economy seats from Calgary YYC to Milan MIL return for October 2014 on Air Canada:

120,000 points plus.......$1398.62 in taxes, fees, and surcharges!!!.... are you effen kidding me?!?

Just to compare I checked out the price for regular economy seats on Air Canada:
$2748.42 for the same flights...so the "fees" come in at 50.89% of the cost...I am not too impressed!!!

Anybody else?
