50% Q miles on Tango Plus fares to Carribean..when was this officially announced?
Was in Jamaica on business trip..flew YYZ-MBJ and returned via Kingston to Toronto ...upgraded in both directions and only got 50% status miles...when was this announced? Agents claim its new as of Jan 1 2006...[B]this is just another rip off from AC and Aeroplan to reduce accumulation on a higher paid fare that is not latitude...

Jamaica hasn't moved to the new fare structure yet - so how you got a Tango Plas fare for MBJ is beyond me.

2) How did you upgrade? With a cert? Op-up? Companion upgrade you?
3) Don't listen to agents because most of them know very little when it comes to the low-down-and-dirty rule details.

Exact details:

From: TORONTO ON, CANADA TERMINAL 1 Departs:1100 Economy Confirmed
To: MONTEGO BAY, JAMAICA Arrives:1505 Fare basis: VLWAP21/DISC
03FEB06 AIR CANADA AC 985
From: KINGSTON MANLEY, JAMAICA Departs:1630 Economy Confirmed

So what does this mean...100% or 50%...let me know..I did upgrade in both directions...and pre-booked the upgrade through AC
