Exploring the world around us is one of the most exciting things we can do, but one thing holds many people back: the cost! Travelling can be expensive, and it’s hard to get the funds together when you’re also focused on paying for necessities in your everyday life.
Lucky for you, CAA is here to make travel a little more affordable and a lot more fun. Let’s talk about all the perks available to you as a member so you can learn how to save money on travel!
This is often a big part of the cost when you take a trip. Unless you’re lucky and can stay with friends or family while you’re away, there is a nightly cost associated with the place you stay. Lucky for you, CAA partners with a lot of great hotels so you can save on the cost! When you visit our CAA Rewards® portal, you can see all the options available to you.
Partner Spotlight: We are excited to welcome Choice Hotels to the CAA Rewards® family in 2025! Members get 10% off when booking, and you can even earn Choice Privileges points!
Renting a car is a great way to get around at your destination, but it can be costly. Road-tripping is an alternative to ensure you have your vehicle with you, but sometimes the distance is too great for this to be feasible—and it can cut into your overall vacation time spent in that final spot! Check out all the affordable car rental options available to you in our portal. You can get a discount plus earn other additional benefits, saving you money and even earning other great perks!
Partner Spotlight: You can save up to 20% off your rental plus 10 CAA Dollars® when you rent with National! Visit their page in the portal to see all the other great perks our members can get.
Speaking of driving, you’re going to need fuel to get around, whether it’s a road trip or just a rental at your destination! So, you might be asking how to save money on fuel while travelling. Thanks to Shell’s great partnership with CAA, your road to savings is clear! Members save 3¢/litre as well as 10% off retail and car washes. You can fuel up your car and your body and have your car sparkling for the journey!

No matter where you travel, you’ll have to eat, and one of the best parts of a vacation is trying a little bit of everything! In fact, many people base their entire trip around the best places in the world to eat. But how can you make more affordable dining choices while you travel? Explore the restaurant options in the CAA Rewards portal! Whether you want a quick slice of pizza or a quiet sit-down meal, there are discounts available for you.
Partner Spotlight: Order an Ultimate Dining Gift Card online before you leave for your trip—members get 5% off the purchase, and it allows you to choose from several great restaurants.
If you are flying to your destination but need to leave your car somewhere, Park’N Fly is a great option! Your car will be safe and waiting for you when you return, and your membership will grant you a discount on this cost. Reserve online and get 10% off the already discounted price or drive up and save 25% off the posted rates! This is a great way to save money on airport parking while you travel.

We have in-house ATMs at our Saskatoon East, Regina South, Swift Current, and Estevan stores. You can also do online ordering on our website to get the best rates with no fees—this means your money can go further!
