Yeah, you might pay (a little) more through the AC website or through a TA, but you'll look like a hero when IRROPS hits. And it will hit, one day.

Family reunion trip three years ago: Frugal brothers booked their families via Orbitz on a similar itinerary to my direct with airline where i have top status. Bad weather around SEA/YVR forced cancellation of last TPAC flights. They slept on the floor, chairs in YVR while DL put my family of four into a suite at the Marriott SEA along with buffet breakfast and dinner voucher.
