YYC-CDG r/t 1550 all in. 125% AQM and instant J. Yeehaw!

Edit: Stopovers allowed.

And another TATL booked. Time for dinner, maybe more later.

Does this mean O is fully flexible now, like Y?

I doubt they will retroactively grant flexibility when they setup the buckets. Right now O is $300 change/$300 cancel on that YYC-CDG fare.

So did booking class O go up in price, or are E/N actually cheaper than booking class O?

yqtyyz Feb 14, 2014 6:28 pm

Bleh... my HND-YYZ and YYZ-ZRH-YYZ are both waitlisted, but whatever - upgrade has been requested. Thanks, OP!

Hopefully AC clears some initial upgrade requests beforehand, though.

So what the booking window is for O fares for E50/E75?

AC.com still says 5/6 days, but also says 7 days for SE100, so obviously not correct based on OPs post.

So an E75 will be able to upgrade a Flex fare (with the crazy $750 co-pay of course) but not a PE fare booked in E or N?

Co-pays will apply to lower PE fares:

I would have thought that the lower PE fares would have had the same # e-credits as Flex (M), but it looks like it's the same as regular Flex fares.

O will go up in price when they start offering E & N, but they aren't offering them yet. Hence the (amazing) current situation, cheap PE tickets are booking into O so you can upgrade them right away, regardless of departure date.

Ummm, according to that post, co-pay will apply to E,N classes. But according to the eUp website, only SEs can even apply to eUp these fares.

Is this a sign of co-pay coming to SE? :confused:

No, it's a sign of them only having half-implemented E and N. Which is fine, since they're not selling them yet.

New fare classes have been introduced as of February 18, 2014:

From the e-upgrade page:

* Effective February 18, 2014, booking classes E and N will be sold under the Premium Economy (lowest) fare option and are eligible for eUpgrades. Also, booking class P is now part of the Business Class fare option.
Fare types:
http://www.aircanada.com/shared/en/a...types_int.html

Fare search also shows Premium Lowest and Flexible options.

Lowest PE fares still get 125% AQM.

Anyone know of any routes with valid P/E/N fares?

Play Around With Fares
 
Folks, make sure you click the "flexible" option under PE as well. In some cases it's still CHEAPER than the "lowest" PE option. :eek:

You'll save upgrade credits AND money.

HometoYYZ Feb 18, 2014 6:48 am

And in a sign of just how clear the options are, the page yvr76 links to still says "Low fares, 5 clear options," despite the fact that there are now 7 options.
