YYC was very very bare probably due to the holiday weekend. Went today at Fri Aug 4, at about 230pm.
In the EA, there was a Hyundai Sonata, Dodge Charger, Jeep Wrangler, Mitsubishi RVR and 3 Minivans.

I was here a few times this winter. For premier selection, they usually have Audi A4's, Q3's and some 3 series bmws etc. I've had them give this free to me once as EE, but they usually try to charge $10-$20. Maybe more for non EEs.
For ES, they have Durango, Charger, the full size ford sedan(forgot what it's called), sometimes a C300. Lots of Kia's and I've also seen a Ford Flex.
I've seen it very bare even on weekends before due to ski season. Almost impossible to find a large SUV like suburban/yukon
They mentioned new models will be coming in soon!

Decent selection if you like nicely equipped SUVs:
EA: Wrangler, Escape SEL w/ Pano moonroof, Sedona, Rogue, Impala, Jetta Wagon
ES: Flex Limited, Durango GT, Murano SL, Sorento, Pathfinder SV, Santa Fe
Upgrades were QX60 and Q5
Debated between the Murano (never seen an SL before) and the Escape and grabbed the Escape as I like the way they ride/handle and had the light colored leather interior with the huge sunroof.

Yea I was wondering if anyone could tell me what they typically see in the general emerald aisle here. Me and 3 friends will be coming in on Thursday, December 12 with snowboard bags and are hoping to be able to get a SUV. Are there commonly SUVs in the standard emerald aisle at YYC? I'm not an executive member, just a standard member.

During February, what is the availability of snowflake tires on larger vehicles at YYC in the Executive Aisle? I am planning a trip to Jasper next year for four people, and it would be nice to have a larger vehicle. I currently have a full-size booked for Executive Aisle as a placeholder. The only option on the website for winter tires (snowflake?) is a midsize vehicle. Booking this would seemingly take me out of Executive Aisle access. Or is there some local knowledge regarding winter tires at YYC? Thanks
