I think the worst thing about AC fares is you can't determine which class you're in by the fare code. You need the entire fare basis with the suffix which is not easy to find on most booking engines. I can't even find this on Aeroplan if I book a market fare.

Ok, let's say I book a Comfort ticket.
I can check my bag for free, and I can fly same-day standby at no cost.
Can I do both? Can I check my bag, AND fly same-day standby? It seems disingenuous to offer both perks and not present it as a one or the other option.

Problem is also (as noted somewhere above) that you can't select a higher booking code from the website so need to call in.,
[Unless I missed a subtle link].
On a positive note, looking for a Sept trip, I thought fares were 'reasonable' for CO as being only ~$30 more than Flex. That differential will change according to market forces!
