Airmiles.ca Loyalty One Collect Airmiles and get rewards Toronto Ontario

After several decades of collecting Airmiles through various retailers, I am informed by Airmiles that all these miles will soon be expired, leaving only the very few I recently acquired. Searches for reward flights to numerous destinations on different dates during the low season in April next year produced no flights available for the chosen destinations and dates, yet the pay-with-money option revealed many. The alternative of merchandise rewards was no use because the great majority are available only as miles plus significant amounts of cash. This loyalty program has turned into a big rip-off. I heard that a class action suit has already been started.
