i basically wanted specific flights

AC would only do it ( i think) if i flew

AKL LAX YVR YYZ PHL (where i want specifically AKL LAX PHL)

some traffic rules don't allow AC to sell other tickets if they don't land in canada

big waste of my time to do AC's "allowed" route even if i'm willing to pay for the segments, they won't go on 1 ticket

1 ticket would be better for me should any hiccups happen of course

i tried AC.com but AKL PHL doesn't happen. my request gets an "unable to do" page
