Rapidair same day changes
Can someone tell me what the rules are for Rapidair (YYC-YVR) same day airport changes? The information on AC.com seems out of date.
I know you can standby for free for an earlier Rapidair flight. However, what if you want a later flight? Can you just show up at the airport within a certain time frame or do you forfeit? Many thanks!

Technically, if you no-show a flight, you forfeit it.

Last time I did it me meetings ran late I missed my flight. I went to the counter, they charged me 75$ + tax for a same day change and put me on the next one. I booked flex G and ended up rebooked into flex H.

There are also countless stories of people being rebooked for free.
But the rule states that if you don't show up, you lose it.
