VIA Préférence Program

Welcome aboard the transformed VIA Préférence program
Whether you travel every week or a few times a year, your trips with VIA Rail can always be rewarded. We’ve redesigned the VIA Préférence program to give our members more value, exciting new features, and new ways to earn points and redeem them sooner.

Share your points with friends and family
You can now transfer points from one VIA Préférence account to another up to 5 times a year. And the best thing is, it’s free! Learn more about the new points transfer feature
Redeem sooner
The number of points you need for a trip is now based on the published fare at the time of booking. That means when the fares are lower, so is the number of points required. Plus, we’ve made it easier for you to use your points with new redemption options. Learn all about the changes
