The other option you have is to standby for the 5pm ex-YUL. It's a one stop flight under one flight number (Similar to the one you were on ex-YVR). That's a A330 flight and it stops in YYZ.</font>
I saw that one but it's just too late in the day. If I can get the morning flight(s) then I'm back in Vancouver late-morning/noon, which essentially "saves" me the business day.
Here's to hoping that I haven't used up all my Lucky Charm yet...
