What can I do to protect myself in case I don't make AC8816? How can I ensure I am on the first flight out the next day and not bumped to December 25, thus getting home late on Christmas Day?

I fly a lot with AC but don't have a lot of experience dealing with challenges like this. Appreciate any and all advice...Merry Christmas!
Once it's confirmed you'll miss a connection you can call AC and get them to protect you on a later flight. But until it's actually happening (and you're wheels up on the inbound) they won't touch it. This is why it's great that the planes have wifi.
