After 24 hours, you can change your ticket subject to a fee.. I think with AE is $90, perhaps the same with AC..

What? Did you imply that one can change an AP booking for no fee within 24 hours? If so, you're wrong.

No, there is no fixed change fee for AC tickets. It depends on the fare rules of the fare purchased which again heavily depend on the kind of trip (Canada, NA, international), the fare category (T+/Lat./Exec. Lowest etc.) and the country of origin. The change fee can be anything from $0 to $250 (+ fare difference, additional taxes etc.)

OP didn't say what class of ticket considering booking into.. but I assume there would be a change fee since changing within 24 hours for no charge ($0.00) seems to be a value add here..

Same-day only. Usually $100-$250 or more in advance, plus fare difference. If fare is lower, no refund of difference (unlike most US airlines).
You might need to bring a sacrificed chicken and a toe to your local ticket office, open conveniently from 9AM-9:43AM Monday-Thursday.

No problem to change if its an error or if a flight itinerary changes or a segment gets cancelled.. there would be no charge to change an AE reservation.. otherwise its $90 change fee the second that you book an AE FF flight redemption..
