Horrible deal!

I find this to be a horrible deal! Why?

1. Tango fare availability: Non-existent most of the time. There's availability RIGHT NOW (Feb 6, 2008) but then again, OW fares to/from NY are $98 (ie. better than the cost of the pass). Try to find a Tango fare in 3-12 months. There aren't any!

2. Fly Mondays and Saturdays: What's the point? Plus... AC will probably only make Tango fares availabale on Saturday PM flights and Monday PM flights! There are only 4 flight credits to use in a 12 month period - why wouldn't they at least allow travellers who spent the cash in advance to travel on any day of the week?

3. Change fees: $60 in advance. $150 same-day: IF there are $98 Tango fares available online, you might as well give up your flight credit and buy a new ticket!

4. 25% Aeroplan miles: Probably not even Status Miles!

5. Hotel deals? NOT!
