I forgot that TANGO fares do not allow advance seat selection. However, does not the fact that all fare classes in the economy cabin are available, tells one that there are several seats available for sale in that cabin? If only one seat was available in the economy cabin for sale, would the aircanada.com site have only the latitude fare as available for sale for that one seat? Or, could all fare classes still be available for sale, even in an oversold flight?

PS-Why did these 2 flights not show up on ITN - a software glitch?
