T+ Pass and availability
So I'm trying to book YOW->BDL return using an Eastern Pass T+. I see on AC.com that there is a 19:20 departure (BDL-YYZ-YOW) available for purchase in T+. I then check the flight pass and there is no 19:20 departure option available. Why would that be?
AC7955 BDL-YYZ (B4)
AC472 YYZ-YOW (B9)
Looking at B4, is that possibly now sold out, and those are oversells still available?

One of the negative aspects of the pass is that not all flights that you see on Air Canada's booking engine are available as a pass option. There are only select flights available for pass redemption. The flight you are looking at probably is never available as a pass option thus the reason you do not even see it sold out or available when you try to book with your pass.

although Andrew has previously indicated that all connections should be available as pass bookings...not sure what the current info is... I have found certain connections not showing up which is annoying (especially when they're the shortest ones...)

Extra fee
If you wanted all routings to be made available with your pass, you needed to click on the "access all routings" button, which would result in an extra fee of $2,123,343. But, you can now save $2 on the inflight meal, so they are giving a little bit back.
