So i haven't booked yet as there is no advantage for me to buy a latitude flight now that doesn't guarantee me a first class seat

i could end up flying tango plus and have the same chance of upgrading if we waited until 4 days before

the benefit that I would get (please let me know if this is right)
is if I bought latitude now and 2 upgraded seats are available for us (say in the next week - more than a month ahead of the departure) we would get upgraded if i used my eUpgrades since with latitude fares you can get upgraded before the 4 days before departure

Air Canada would have my money now if i could use my eUpgrades in combo with buying 2 latitude fares....

SEs would always be ahead of Es if both are on the waitlist at the same time (whether prior or on day of departure)

so buying 2 latitude tickets was worth the extra 1000 per ticket over tango plus
if only there wasn't the 500 dollar fuel surcharge in the cost of the total fare
they really should include this in the fare price
