Canadians now have more ways to get value from every trip. Blue Rewards and Porter Airlines have announced a strategic partnership that names Porter the preferred airline partner of Blue Rewards, bringing together two programs designed to make travel more rewarding. 

Starting September 24, members who link their Blue Rewards and VIPorter accounts can earn VIPorter points up to 20% faster. They can also receive bonus Blue Points when redeeming for eligible Porter flights through Blue Rewards Travel. In the coming months, linked members will be able to convert Blue Points into VIPorter points, creating even more flexibility. 


“By connecting their Blue Rewards and VIPorter accounts, members can earn points faster and enjoy additional benefits along the way. We’re bringing together the strengths of both programs to give Canadians more ways to make their travel more rewarding.”

- Jennifer Hawkins, President, Blue Rewards


More rewarding travel can help Canadians get more from the spending they already do, supporting BMO’s commitment to helping Canadians make real financial progress. 

More value from two loyalty programs 

By linking their accounts, members can earn more VIPorter points on Porter flights and access dedicated promotional offers across Blue Rewards and VIPorter. 

  • A welcome offer: Earn 500 Blue Points and 500 VIPorter points after linking eligible Blue Rewards and VIPorter accounts.
  • Enhanced earning: Linked members earn additional VIPorter points on Porter flights, on top of the base earn of 5 to 7 VIPorter points per dollar spent, excluding taxes and fees. Members earn one additional VIPorter point per $1 spent when using an eligible linked BMO payment card, or one additional VIPorter point per $2 spent without an eligible linked BMO payment card. 
  • Bonus Blue Points on redemptions: When members redeem Blue Points for eligible Porter flights through Blue Rewards Travel, powered by Expedia, they receive bonus Blue Points based on the booking value: 1,000 points for flights valued up to $350; 3,750 points for flights valued from $351 to $450; and 7,500 points for flights valued above $451.
  • A limited-time offer: Until November 30, 2026, Blue Rewards members with an eligible BMO payment card can earn up to 1,500 additional bonus Blue Points when redeeming Blue Points for an eligible Porter flight through Blue Rewards Travel.

Designed to make every journey go further 

The partnership builds on BMO and Porter’s relationship following the launch of the BMO VIPorter Mastercard in 2025. Together, the expanded relationship gives Canadians a seamless way to maximize rewards across both loyalty programs.
