No status, in Y, with a 4 hour layover?
Were they just bored, with no one better to drive?
Given that this is only for domestic to international in YYZ, I suppose it's possible, but... wow.

I booked my partner an aeroplan (y) ticket from Yxe-yyz-BCN. I'm already in BCN so he is travelling alone. He was quite surprised when he walked off the plane (with a 4 hour layover) and there was a concierge waiting for him. They drove him to the lounge in a BMW. The funny thing is, he has no status and shouldn't even have had lounge access on the aeroplan ticket. It
Sure made his day!! I've seen three pictures already! Now if only I could get the same service....... 😉

Well that's one way to create an AC fan.

The best deal, if one is not gone too long, is the valet parking and using an AMEX card to get the valet discount plus a full 15% off the retail price. If AC starts a home/office limo pick up service for high yield overseas flight customers that would put them well ahead of almost all airlines at YYZ. The in airport service would make it even sweeter. That service is overdue in my opinion.

AC is, I believe, going to roll out a home pickup for J Pax in due time. I think there is lots going on in the background to make the international J service a lot better. Making money allows them to start ramping up better services as do other airlines.

Was transiting YVR > YYZ > CPH with a ~2-hour layover. S100K in J. No limo service for me I'm afraid.
Curious when/if they'll make this a standard benefit akin to F PAX at FRA or if it'll always be "luck of the draw" so-to-speak.
