My itinerary is actually EWR-YYZ-FCO. My trip begins at Newark Liberty, and I have a lengthy layover at Toronto Pearson. Apparently, the EWR-YYZ part of my itinerary is also a UA codeshare with AC.

I've been booking through Expedia since 2009, and I've never had problems.

Would you advise me to book online through the carrier itself instead?
