Multi-Segment Run

Is anyone able to assist with a multi-stop run from YVR-YYZ?

I need to make a change from a direct flight to include stops to ensure I get enough AQM to keep E50K. Only thing I see on AC.com is one stop in YYC or YEG, etc.

Currently, need to make up about 300 miles.

Please PM if able.

Thanks!

Use the ITA website to price an itinerary. Phone AC reservations to make the change and specify the flights you want to switch to.

I would suggest rouging YYZ-YEG-YYC-YVR or YYZ-YYC-YEG-YVR. You need to deviate from the Great Circle routing in order to add miles. I don't think simply adding a stop in certain cities such as YWG or YQR will do the trick.

In Flex, the YEG/YYC segments will give you the extra miles you need.

Alternatively, you could purchase a latitude fare. The 25% COS will give you approximately 2,500 miles over the Flex non-stop routing.

Easiest way is to route via YYC and YEG. YVR-YEG-YYC-YYZ. Call it in to AC, it's a valid routing. Sadly, what you would think of as the easier options (via YOW or YUL) aren't legal routings.

So SFO-YVR-YUL-YOW-YYZ is legal, but YVR-YUL-YYZ isn't? Oh AC...

Yup! YYC-YVR-YYZ-ORD, check. YYC-YVR-YYZ, nope!
