enRoute As sisters, you grew up between Canada and the United States, and now live on opposite sides of the border. How often do you see each other?

Ariana Mavaddat Between family functions, birthdays and weddings, we end up seeing each other monthly.

Carla Mavaddat We also try to go on a trip together once a year. Last year we went skiing in the Dolomites and this year we went to Dominica.

ER Who has more stamps in their passport?

CM You are opening up a can of worms! We have a competition going between the two of us. I’m at 35 countries and counting.

AM We are pretty competitive about this. I think Carla has been to two more countries than I have, but I tend to go back to places more often.

ER Why does Aeroplan work for you?

CM I enjoy Aeroplan credit card benefits like free first checked bags. I also appreciate the fact that I can pool points with family members. Since my partner and I share a credit card, we pool points for our upcoming trips together.

ER How do you earn most of your Aeroplan points?

AM Living in the United States, I have the Chase Aeroplan Card. As I’m based in upstate New York, I actually use Montreal as my main airport and I need all the Aeroplan points I can get.

ER What is your sister’s secret travel talent?

AM Carla scouts out restaurants or shops and creates a nice, curated list of where to go.

CM Ariana is the best driver. Be it on the right side or the left side of the road, she can drive anywhere.
