Yeah, any destination served from YVR not served from SFO direct.

Ummmm, most of AC's sales on this route will be YVR based. ie., RETURNING home or connecting via YVR to get to their Canadian destination.

Or, just take the early flight AC offers for AM meetings in Vancouver

Odd, the 5pm flts I'm on are ALWAYS rammed with suits when there are 6p and 7p options (YYZ-YOW, YYZ-YUL).
And if it were later, someone would chime in, "AC's flight means I don't get home till 9pm and don't get to see my kids before they're in bed!"

Everyone thinks their needs are the needs of the market for 2 freaking daily flights. Too late, too early ....... This is an avgeek's version of Goldilocks and the 3 bears
