It now seems by default the option "I am flexible with my dates" is now enabled on aircanada.com.
Continuation of the dumbing down?
Plus, even if you disable it, it comes back automatically every time.
Another issue: often I get a second search box popping up when it is already searching. Why?
Finally, often when entering the return date, the thing gets me back to entering departure and arrival cities. With only the departure date still in. Possibly an issue of where the months box is on the page and it being easy to inadvertently touching something else? Still poor design?
Anyway, not impressed with aircanada.com and the continued downgrading.

I wonder if it is your Browser cache, as I just try and that box is not checked for me.
