        	What is Aurora Concierge and how does it work?
			
            	A: Aurora Concierge is the way we recognize our most frequent travellers.  
                When you fly a minimum of 12 one-way flights with us in a calendar year, 
                you will be eligible for recognition as an Aurora Concierge Silver member.  
                This status provides you with additional benefits and recognition when travelling 
                with Canadian North.  Aurora Concierge Gold and Aurora Concierge Diamond are the 
                next levels that you can achieve, with added benefits at each level.  For complete 
                details on the benefits you receive as an Aurora Concierge member,

             My Aeroplan Points did not go through.  How do I collect those once I've flown?
            
			
            A: It can take up to 6 weeks for your Aeroplan Points to appear in your Aeroplan account.  
            If they do not appear, please ensure your Aeroplan number has been added to your Aurora
             Rewards account and they will be tracked automatically moving forward. In order to collect missing 
             miles with Aeroplan, you can request a mileage credit online with Aeroplan, by 
            
clicking here. 	
            
 
        
        	
        	
            I've moved.  How do I change my address?
            
			
            A: All changes to your account information can be made online at aurorarewards.com.  
            The only exception to that is if your name has changed. In that event, you must provide 
            us with a copy of your legal certificate of marriage or divorce.	
            
         
        
        	
        	
           	I forgot my password.  What do I do?
            
			
            	A: The Sign In area of the Aurora Rewards website provides 
                a 'forgot your password' link.  Once clicked, you are asked to enter 
                the email address and last name on your Aurora Rewards account.  
                You are then presented with the security question you set-up when 
                you created your profile.  If no security question is set-up, or you 
                don't remember the answer, a link is available to have a password reset 
                email sent to the email address on your account.  By clicking the link in 
                the email received, you are able to reset your password.
            
         
        
        
        Earning Points FAQs
        
        
        	
        	
           	How do I earn points and what will I earn for the fare that I paid?
            
			
            	A: You earn points once you have enrolled in Aurora Rewards and provide 
                your Aurora Rewards number when you are making your booking.  If you forgot 
                to add your Aurora Rewards number at the time of booking, it can be added 
                at the airport upon check-in.
                
				You will earn points based on the mileage that you have flown as well as the fare you have paid.

           	Why are my "Available Points" different than my "Qualifying Points"?
            
			
            	A: Available Points include all points that you have earned from flying, as well
                 as from bonuses or contests.  Bonus and contest points do not count towards your
                  progress towards Aurora Concierge status but they are available for you to use 
                  to redeem for flights, gift cards or merchandise.

                memberships and points/miles earned in each can only be redeemed through 
                their respective programs.

                points you have worked to earn.  Therefore, only the member may authorize the 
                use of their Aurora Rewards Points for any redemption.
