All I am trying to do is avoid the FX transaction fee's. I've booked other flights on AC.com on the same computer within the past few weeks, and those transactions were all in CDN, so I really have no idea why it came out in USD.

I imagine that I call Amex to try and resolve this, or do I call AC?

thanks
Use a TA in Canada.
GDS changes currency to the one used in the POS.
