I'm wondering why AC no longer wants me to fly with them. Just went to book a return YEG-YVR in early May. The Tango price is $345 all in, T+ is $584. AC wants $240 for 1004 status miles, advanced seat selection and $75 cheaper same day upgrade.

The problem is, I can make up 1000 miles for nothing by routing my next flight to anywhere through Calgary and Westjet is still cheaper than the Tango price ($311).

Its nice to see AC matching WS seat sales, but an 88% price differential for 1000 status miles seems too much.
