He can simply use his ticket to get into the MLL at YEG at YYZ correct? I know that eupgraded tickets retain the original details of the ticket (so status miles, etc. won't change) but a business ticket should get him departing MLL at YEG, and access to a lounge at YYZ correct? (He connects YEG-YYZ-CDG).
Just wondering if I have to send him along with any of my single use maple leaf lounge tix, or I can save those for someone else.
Thanks!
Strictly in accordance with the rules, your buddy will need a guest MLL pass to enter because eUpgrade does not include MLL access. It also does not include additional baggage allowance.
However, YMMV depending on the AC staff at the lounge whether he/she will enforce the rule, or will know the rule to enforce. Inconsistency is one of the signature features of flying AC.
