Air Miles collectors will now need to cough up more miles when booking vacation or cruise packages. Peters believes Air Miles devalued some miles to make up for lost profits when its owner, Toronto-based LoyaltyOne, cancelled its controversial expiry policy last month. Air Miles told CBC News it hasn't lowered the value of miles in any other category and gave no indication what else it would do to make up the shortfall. Air Miles told CBC News that its agents who help members book trips have been very clear about the value of miles in the category. After Peters expressed her concerns to the program, Air Miles allowed her to book her Mexico trip using miles based on their original value.
