Seat Map / Availability Discrepancy
Hey all,
Sorry, this is probably a newbie question since I don't usually fly AC, but I was checking on tonight's AC141 (YYZ-YYC) to see the seat map on EF. It was showing availability as Y9 ... T9 L7 A6 K6, but only one seat free on the seat map (none showed as blocked, all occupied).
Does anyone know what the discrepancy here is due to? Are they really still selling 9+ Y seats on this flight, with only one seat left unassigned?

Ah, makes sense 
Just went to try booking it on aircanada.com and viewing the seat map (like I probably should have at the start) and saw that there were 11 preferred seats free, which showed up as occupied on EF

Ah! Well good! It's been awhile since I gave concur a try and it would let you select it, and put in your number, etc, and then would never work if you logged in to AC and checked your ticket. So glad to hear they got it working right finally.
