Apparently, AC does not fly daily to SIN, MNL and KIX.

Will they honor that 'connection' even though the tickets are issued separately?

The routing with the SEA-YVR tags are just about $400~500 extra. I feel that beats the stress of having to cross by land.

Lounge in YVR is good, AC J is serviceable. $1500 savings? Go for it. May not even be less PQP, $3k PQP for the r/t TPAC segment on AC
Yes, I do like a window seat, but I do not mind the reverse herringbone. I flew CX for ages in a previous life.

Are you referring to the Signature lounge? The Maple Leaf lounge is crowded and has very little edible food.

For my September itinerary, yes it is still about USD1500~1700 cheaper!

For December, AC is about the same or a few hundred dollars more expensive than UA via SFO.
