Aim for the center

Need something between a minimum service rate and Business Class? Air Canada recently unveiled a wide range of North American economy fares, which gives you more flexibility in selecting the services you want for a more personalized experience. Among other new features, it launched the new comfort rate which includes many features, including free access to the Preferences seats, and the possibility of obtaining additional options, such as access to the Maple Leaf lounge.

Reward Points

Are you saving for your vacation or your dream experience with your reward program? Some airlines offer additional points with certain fares, so you might want an upgrade that often comes with other benefits. For example, with certain types of rates you accumulate 125% in reward points, which brings you closer to your dream vacation.

Time of the day

If you are traveling at night, you could choose an Economy Privilege rate that includes a larger armchair so that you can lie down and sleep. Also consider the time of year and the destination. If you are going to a hot country, you could avoid checking in baggage. But if the weather is cold or changeable, plan to record at least one to be sure you have everything you need.
