New offering allows members to redeem points for 24/7 virtual healthcare for kids under 18

TORONTO & MONTREAL: KixCare, Canada’s first and only national, bilingual virtual healthcare solution dedicated to children and teenagers, has partnered with Aeroplan to offer its Kix360° membership program in the Air Canada Aeroplan eStore. Canadian Aeroplan Members can now redeem their points for a three- or 12-month subscription that provides comprehensive virtual physical and mental healthcare from a trusted team of pediatric professionals, anytime, anywhere.

“At KixCare, we believe that kids require specialized care to address both physical and mental health concerns, and parents shouldn’t have to wait weeks or months to speak with a healthcare professional when their child is sick or struggling,” says Adam Saperia, CEO of KixCare. “We’re excited to partner with Aeroplan to give Canadian families more ways to access our services than ever before.”

Developed with busy families in mind, Kix360° offers fast, reliable access to a team of top pediatric experts who can help parents navigate unexpected illnesses at home and abroad, provide mental health counseling, advise on difficult conversations, and share guidance on children’s overall health and wellbeing. Cutting down on unnecessary emergency room visits and long wait times, Kix360° seamlessly connects parents to the right healthcare professional through secure messaging and video calls.

Founded in 2021 by a team of physicians - all parents themselves - KixCare was created to remove the barriers families face in accessing timely, specialized care. By offering 24/7 support across Canada, the service helps reduce visits to walk-in clinics or emergency rooms while providing crucial health services and parenting support.

“Travel should be a fun and relaxing time for families to make memories together, so for added peace of mind, we offer familiar care navigation to parents in the event their child should get sick while abroad,” says Saperia. “With Kix360°, families have direct access to trusted experts who understand what kids and teens need - providing real help, in real time, whether at home or on vacation.”

One Kix360° membership covers all children under 18 in a household, making it a simple and effective solution for families seeking immediate personalized care. In addition to virtual appointments and care navigation while travelling, families also benefit from expert-led webinars, parenting tips, and a growing collection of pediatric health resources. Both the three- and 12-month memberships can be found on the Aeroplan eStore now for 12,500 and 18,100 points, respectively.

"We pride ourselves on offering our members meaningful rewards that support their everyday needs as well as their travel experiences. With the addition of Kix360° to the Aeroplan eStore, members can turn their points into peace of mind," adds Andrew Noonan, Manager of Loyalty Retail and Affiliate Products at Air Canada.
