You sure your expectation is reasonable? At the speed of AC IT, I would say anywhere between three months and three years?

To be fair to AC IT, its possible AC RM knows that I'd spend ungodly amounts of money to be able to book any flight on Febtober 38, and this is just step one in their a/b testing.

I'm not sure we need an identical post every day.

I'm also not sure what you expect. I think it's going to continue to say March 1 until either:
a) November 5
b) A few days after you fly the final segment when the PNR can no longer be accessed

Not identical.. today it says:

Day 5. AC.com still showing the wrong departure date.

Maybe you should avoid this thread until November 5, my Northerly Bovine friend?

Also... November 5.. why that date? Prey tell.....

So who is flying on Nov. 5? :-)

BTW weren't they supposed to switch last April, or May? So might not be Nov. but February, at least for the time being? :-)

I love these daily updates.
P.S. AC is now inviting us to test the new App. Wonder if Feb 29/March 1 works in the "new"beta" app.

I'm thinking this might turn into a story about a man who was sort've down on his luck. So he took to the streets shaking a banana at people, trying to convince them it was making a sound...

Any chance you might limit yourself to once a week?

You know me better than that, don't you....

How many threads on the AC forum? I'm sure you can avoid perusing one of them, no?

NB line about man and a banana...

AC has trouble dealing with an extra hour for daylight savings time, you can't really expect them to competently handle a whole extra day - That's 24 times more complicated!
