Isn't that not allowed... shouldn't the connection time be atleast 50 minutes or something??
If I miss the connection , the next flight is a 5 hour wait... which is not very desireable.
Any chance if I call in to Aeroplan and mention this , that I can get them to put me on the Direct AC flight ... based on the fact the connection time is kind of illegal?
Thought perhaps maybe someone has had experience with this in the past.

Anyhow, my scenario is on Austrian , connection in VIE.
I called Aeroplan. They sais it is legal as Austrian sells it that way. Oh well , seems not much time to me.

Agent said she would look for other routing , and if "i" class was available at the the same redemption level he would make the changes.... guess I could do that on my own as SE , so no special treatment on that one.

Guess I'll keep it as is .
I am confused. Are you connecting in FRA or VIE? Or are you talking about two different bookings?
