On a related matter: What about lounges? I don't have a Top Tier or *A Gold card yet, or any such proof, except for a boarding pass that says AC*E. Can I still access lounges, and give them my Aeroplan number?

Thanks all! This is the first time I've earned Elite status despite years of traveling, so so many questions!
Yes, you could have priority boarded.

Technically you're supposed to have your card but most MLL agents will look up your profile if you tell them your AE number and if you don't have your card on you. As for *A partner lounges, it's much less likely that you'll get in without your card.
