Oh, and the UA LAX-EWR J fare one-way non-stop fare? CAD $875.67.
I only ever hear positive things about B6. Need to check them out.

That is *never* the case on AC except at very specific times of year (like Z fares on Jan 1st).
Yeah AC LMU isn't much cheaper if at all from Tango to lowest J but the US airlines seem to have good value if you buy economy and get an LMU offer compared to buying discounted J.

Buying WS plus fares has actually been the most expensive transboarder "premium" travel option out of YYC recently LOL!
