Eupgrade question
So i was waitlisted on my flit from lhr-yyz for an upgrade but I was successful at the gate. In the YYZ MLL I proceeded to upgraded the second segment, YYz to ORD. I believe I will not be charged 6 credits for the second segment since its one PNR and the first segment was more costly. Am I correct because the lounge dragon says otherwise?

The number of upgrade credits is based on the distance from origin to destination. As both LHR-YYZ and LHR-ORD are <5000miles, youd be charged 14 credits when upgrading from T+.

That was te case in the old days of SWU's and SSWU's. I thought the connection on an international flight now has to be within 6 hours to be included in your international upgrade, but can't seem to find it on the AC site.

IMHO you shouldn't bother phoning in. I've had great (and speedy) responses using the following form on aircanada.com.
