Not true. I was able to go standby on an earlier YYZ-YYC flight by asking just 10 minutes before departure (they were just about to close the doors).</font>

Sister checked in at YYZT1 for flight to LHR 25 minutes before departure - a minor miracle but they did it and their luggage made it as well!! (we had sent a message via AC res of their delay and then their imminent arrival at T1)

I dropped off the glowing "you guys rock" letter at T1 yesterday - the agent I gave it to was very appreciative for a passenger taking the time to acknowledge excellent service, it does mean something to the agents anyways!
