It`s quoted at 125$ +200$ = 325$ a bit rich for 2,000 miles but just the 125$ would be fine.

Thanks, Typlane from AC
I presume you're trying to change from a Tango to a Flex ticket to earn any miles on domestic Canada or Transborder? Yes, AC's mileage earning policies, suck.

If you explain to the phone agent why you want to upfare, you might be able to get a fee waived. This might require a couple polite attempts, FYI.
