A couple more questions about this ticket that I'm hoping FT can help with:
1. Instead of flying YYC-YWG-YYZ what are the chances that I would be able to stand-by for a direct YYC-YYZ flight at check-in?
2. My connection in YWG is scheduled for 45 mins. Assuming that flights are on-time I know I'll have no problem making the connection but I'm wondering about my bags? If they went missing that early in the trip it would be tough to ever catch up with them. AC lists the minimum connection time as 25 mins but I'm still a little nervous.
