Standby upgrade does not show up with increased status Aeroplan miles?
A few days ago, I went from YOW to YYZ, on a H fare ticket, which was upgraded by the Rapidair agent, after being put on the standby upgrade list. I had the same type of upgrade a couple of months ago.
In both cases, my original mileage appeared on my Aeroplan statement (eg 375 miles), rather than the more appropriate figure (500 miles for the flight 2 months ago, and 625 miles for the flight a couple of days ago).
What is the Rapidair (gate) agent not doing correctly, to reflect my upgrade status - therefore, I am not getting this increased number of Aeroplan status miles to be put into my Aeroplan account.
What should I do differently in the future, so that the full miles are credited, for a standby upgrade?
