Online check-in with connecting flight
Hey, have a quick question about OLCI. I am traveling YVR-ICN-NRT in about a week- Air Canada etkt# with travel on AC and OZ metal (ICN-NRT being on OZ).
Having just gone through Air Canada's policies for online check-in:
...it looks like I'd need to wait until 24 hours before my OZ flight before I can do OLCI? Or does this only apply when all travel is on AC metal? I'm getting conflicting information from my search results (some say it only applies to all-AC travel while others say it also applies to multi-carrier itineraries)
This isn't really that important for me as I'm already in J but a friend with the same flights is hoping for an LMU offer. If I would need to wait until 24h before the OZ flight, is it possible to call AC and go through the LMU process over the phone?
Thank you!

Oops. I think I may have read that wrong... looks like I can check in any time between 24 hours before my first flight and 24h BEFORE my connecting flight. Confusion averted!
EDIT: But then the last sentence following the asterisk makes me wonder again. 24 hours before the last flight in my itinerary?
