Anyone know what's up with the evening 743/745 YYZ-SFO flights starting July 1?
For July 1 through August 12 (didn't search past that), they all suddenly went to J0.
(744/746 SFO-YYZ look similar on the 7 days I checked, but I haven't done a more thorough search)
Edit: There's tons of positive space on these flights on these flights. They're just not selling it.
Edit 2: I missed the fact that they seem to have zeroed out Y as well. Sigh. Guess one of them is getting cancelled or something. Not sure what they're going to do on the days where they have 80 more booked pax than a 333 can accommodate.

They've also zeroed out the last two flights of the day YYZ-YWG for all of July and August. The evening flights are available again starting Sept. 6th.
Assuming they are cancelled, this means the last YYZ-YWG flight leaves at 16:45, which is too early for me to connect to from my international flight on August 23. Maybe they will just combine them into one flight?

It seems unlikely they'd cancel both.
I can appreciate zeroing them out on July 1 if they're going to cancel the 321, but as I said, they'll still be over by 80 pax if they do that.
July 2 is even worse.
Not gonna go through the whole month, but these are not empty flights.

Can't seem to find any option to book either of the two redeye flights from YVR -> YYZ in August. I was keeping an eye on them in May and now they are just gone. I'm thinking they must be cancelled, although i don't know how to verify this...

126 & 128 are currently zeroed out, which likely means they are cancelled...which is surprising. Thinning out the schedule to create more reliability maybe?

There are no seats for sale on the 6 am or the 1 am flight YEG- YUL for much of July and August. Only the noon flight seems to be there. Seems unlikely that they would be full but if they cancel 2/3 YUL flights that likely will cause many issues!

Do we know if any of these zeroed out flights:
a) really will be cancelled?
b) have existing confirmed pax?
I'm not doubting the logic here, I'm just curious to see if there is consistent real-world data.

b) Yes. I'm one of them. Friday July 1 has 377 people booked between 743+745.
I have an existing reservation end July on YYZ-SFO-YYZ on the flights @canadiancow mentioned. Flight was booked 4 days back. I am on the outbound and return so possibility of two canceled, rebooked or equipment change. I have not recd any notification of cancellation or rebooking yet. My booking still shows on AC system.
I'm trying to book a return for the outbound, and I don't want to route through any connecting city, so with the two late non-stops zeroed out, I can't do anything.

Thanks for the information from Aeroroutes, extremely helpful. Unfortunately, it looks like I'm impacted - booked on AC8790 (PIT-YUL) connecting to AC822 (YUL-BCN) on July 1. AC8790 is completely zeroed out, but of course my booking hasn't been updated. I called AC, but they're telling me they can't change my routing since the flight is still showing in their system. Any suggestions for how to get rebooked proactively? I just don't want to scramble at the last minute since this is the only PIT-YUL flight. Thanks!
