I guess this belongs here because AC.com is being stupid. But maybe it's me. Hopefully it's me, in fact, since it's easier to fix my behaviour than AC.com's.

Let's say I want to fly YUL-LHR-YYZ-YUL. I want a connection in YYZ where 4hr < x < 23h59.

I set up a multi-city trip, YUL-LHR "anytime". LHR-YYZ "morning". YYZ-YUL "evening" (the latest option).

If I choose the 14:10 arrival into YYZ, the next segment offers eight departures from 12:00 to 18:30. I can't find any way to get it to offer later departures!

There are several things wrong with this. First, the first four are impossible connections (three of them depart before arrival, the fourth is a 0:50 Intl-Dom connection). Second, at this point it has no idea what kind of ticket I'm buying, whether it allows stopovers or just connections, etc. Third, there's no way I can find to get later flights (I was hoping for 7pm or so).

Am I doing something wrong? Luckily I won't actually be booking through AC.com this time so it doesn't matter but it would be pretty stupid to pay $30 or whatever because it won't give me what I want. And I know it's not mistakenly limiting to 4hr connections because the last one is 4:20.

Is there any way around this? For research I can probably just use another site but it's frustrating.

Thanks!
