Upgrade on an E90
I have a couple of flights YVR-SFO on E190.
During paper upgrades era, I would never waste a SSWU on a flight like this if I booked in Tango+. Now that it is only 3 credits and I have over 30 extra should I consider it?

You either need a winky face after that, or you made a typo. There is no 1B on an Air Canada E190. Seating is A, D, F in a 1 - 2 config. 3A is my favourite seat.
And...yes, OP, I would take an upgrade on that flight for 3 credits. Absolutely!

Why 3A, doesn't it have limited recline as the wall is behind it?

Yes, you're right, the recline is less than 1A and 2A, but it's enough for me, I like that there's nobody behind me punching the IFE and I like the fact that it's a single seat (i.e. nobody beside me to disturb or to disturb me). YMMV.

Definitely worth 3 credits, but when the current promo expires it's back up to 6 credits, and not worth it IMO. This is a great route to have a flight pass on.
