Whichever airlines you fly, get signed up for those frequent flyer programs to at least gather the miles. Seems like Air Canada Aeroplan would be in the mix.
True, but it's going to be a lot less about accumulating miles than it is about acquiring status and the related perks.
Depending upon the airline and/or metal, taking into account the OPs profile including derogs the best long term option may or may not be to get an airline-specific card vs a more generic travel card.
BTW Aeroplan is slated to be discontinued next year and replaced with an entirely new program. It could be the better bet for example would be to align with UA and book code shares on AC metal to accumulate Mileage Plus miles in conjunction with a Chase UR or UA miles card.
I can use the Disco card and get the premium seats and I'll get perks and get more cashback at the end of year. They run about $248 one way from YYZ to YVR on Air Canada.
I want Amex card but I am not ready because I just cleaned my credit. Cap One is 5 months old and I just graduated and just got the QS card. I never had charge offs.
I rather to use YYZ to YVR because they run as low as $190 to $250 and if I fly from BUF, the fare goes up about $400. So that is why I rather use YYZ, I can use Megabus (About $7 to $11 one way) then go to YYZ then fly out to YVR.
