If someone could please post the hours of operation, I'll update the wiki. I couldn't find this on AC's website. Google says it's 6:30am - 11:30pm, but would like to verify first.
Thank you.
Thank you.

Considering changing my lowest reward to a flexible reward so I can access the YYZ signature suite during my 4.5 hour layover, and then just sleep on my overnight flight. It’s 22k extra miles. Does that seem worth it?
Edit: I went ahead and changed to a flexible reward, since there was only one seat left. I moved to an earlier connecting flight so I now have a 6+ hour layover to enjoy the signature suite next month!

22k points, even at 1cpm, seems a little steep.

Agreed it’s a bit steep and was pretty much the most I was willing to shell out. But I had miles to spare and a long layover, and I’m not sure when I’d get to experience it next. This will be my first time there. I figure I’d pay around $150 for that sort of meal with wines at a nice restaurant, and I can make up a fair amount of the value in additional cocktails, Champagne, and Don Julio 1942. Not to mention the ambience. Will report back with my thoughts in a few weeks!

Since this thread has gotten very long in the tooth, I've moved the posts about the Signature Suites since their reopening to a new thread.
