I have a follow up question. So, connecting through YYZ and then onto PHL for my transatlantic flight. Can I buy duty free in YYZ after US customs? I would like to buy some duty free and want to know that I won't have to go through security in the US again so I can not worry about size issues. Is there a limit?

This might need a different thread.... But I find the duty free at YYZ to be one of the cheapest in the world. Any comments?

I have a similar situation. I am flying on AC Metal domestic from Canada, into YYZ, then connecting onto PHL on US airways metal and onto Europe from PHL. This is an Aeroplan award all 1 ticket.

I have about 1.5 hours for a connection in YYZ.

That should be enough for my luggage, right?
If my luggage does not make it in time, will they rebook me? Which airline and how long especially since I have to fly over to Europe.
Can I just leave my luggage and continue to the flight and have AC forward my luggage after me?

I need to have luggage with me. Flying back after xmas and so I will be carrying lots of stuff.

Another followup. I am *Elite. So I will be using my 3 bag limit. Since I originally check in with AC, I will have the higher luggage limit. I assume that US airways people are not there after US customs, and I can keep the higher luggage limit that I have with AC. I am flying US Airways Envoy (first class), but they still only allow 2 pieces.

Thanks for your help!!!
