Client Testimonials

I used my Avion points a few times to bring my mom and dad to see me and my family here in Vancouver and they live in Michigan. They have no money to travel, that they usually give money to help out families in the Philippines. Seeing my mom and dad means a lot to me and my family and I am happy that my Avion points make families be together. Now I am booking for them to come for Christmas!

We used our Avion points in 2005 for our flight to Europe for our 25th Anniversary Dream Vacation! We took a 12 day Mediterranean Cruise. Wonderful! We have now saved for another vacation, perhaps the South Pacific. The RBC Tour Assistant was so helpful & pleasant, we can't wait to book our next dream trip. We recommend RBC AVION to All of our friends. Thank you RBC.

My grandson was in a hockey tournament in Winnipeg and I had never seen him play hockey. I had already booked another holiday and couldn't afford to go to Winnipeg. I used my RBC reward points to go to Winnipeg to see him play. I was also able to visit my sister and see her new home. I had a great time thanks to RBC rewards.

I flew to Edmonton from Winnipeg to watch the Oilers play and it was awesome. I did not have to use my money for the flight. I used that money to spend at the game instead. It was a blast!
