Checked a couple options for a flight to Europe I'm booking tomorrow if the numbers work. Both a direct AC flight and another with a short non AC leg show the same "carrier surcharge" of $476.
As of 5:48 MST I am still getting same $476 to Europe on Classic with non AC short leg, all AC and market rewards. I will check tomorrow.

Anyone know when the rollover is supposed* to happen? Curious as to when to try this out.
* We're talking about Amia IT (perhaps also ACIT?), so I assume we're looking at a broken system initially, followed by downtime, and half-fixes.

I find that for domestic itineraries, the surcharge is still there. However for overseas, you cannot book either with or without the surcharge.

Looks like AC might be tightening up on R-space in advance of the changes
Three flights I had been watching to Europe in May that were all at least R2 less than hour ago suddenly don't have two IKK J seats available anymore. It was the same flight, on three consecutive days, all with R of at least 2. No more.
Correction: EF still shows R. Aeroplan just doesn't show the corresponding priority rewards.

This should also be the end of charging USTransport Tax and Facility Charge for elites on transborder tickets no?
The excuse given by some AC defenders here was that these faux taxes are charged because the ticket price is not "zero" because of YQ - well now - it will be zero - so one should expect $60 of these taxes to go away too, right
