how would this work?
ok Ive got a flight currently booked going YVR - YUL thru YYZ on #142, it leaves at 815, there is a flight direct YVR - YUL at 8am. I am booked on a C class fare on #142, the other other flight that leaves just before it is showing C0, if when I am at the airport decide to switch to the earlier and more direct flight, will I have to upgrade to J class fare, or will I be able to get on with a C fare, assuming it is not J0, and how would it work with upgrades? like would I get priority or anything, i have no status btw.

And you get more mileage with the additional segment worth 625 miles rather than the additional 100 or so +25% that you'd earn on the non-stop.

I don't think I will get the extra milage, because it is all one flight number, and yeah the main factor for taking #150 would be time, because if #142 is late then im screwed.
