That is a shame. I have travelled to Austin using the San Antonio flight and drove from there. It looks like the Austin flight will remain, but it is usually priced at 2x the San Antonio flight and has less favourable departure times.

I use this route frequently myself, and have been worried this would happen sooner or later. I've seen it full (or nearly full) just a couple of times; often it's been less than half that.

The rare routes that AC runs like that out of YYC often seem to have an AC Vacations tie-in, like the 1x weekly to HUX that they ran last year or some of the other Mexico stuff.
