As a courtesy, you instead send the customer a text message / email / Air Canada app notification at 2h45. If they haven't left after 3h10 or whatever, ding the customer for overage via an on-file payment method. Or complete the transaction on the plane.
If the departure is delayed, send the MLL customer a message along the same lines saying their stay has been extended.
Huh? I assume the 3-hour limit is calculated from the scheduled departure time, so it's easily enforced at entry. If a flight is delayed, obviously AC is not going to kick impacted passengers out of the lounge.
