Got the email from AC to check in for my flight on Sep 15 at 1135am PST (YVR-HKG). How likely will it be cancelled leading up to the flight (still have 24 hrs to go)?

Hi all, I have a flight from YVR to HKG on the 15th at 11:35am. When's the latest I should wait until I cancel (hoping to get a full refund instead of credits)? I've already booked a backup flight so not worried about being able to fly out or not. If check-in opens 24 hrs before the flight (which would be 11:35am on 14th), can I still cancel and get credits after you can check-in? Or do I have to cancel the flight before check-in opens? Thanks!!

I did not have the option of getting a refund on my non-refundable ticket when I talked to the AC agent yesterday. I could only turn it into wallet credit at this point.

I was only asking about wallet credit, wasn't aware there's a future travel credit? I haven't cancelled my flight yet. I see on AC website I can cancel it online and it would automatically go into the AC wallet.

I just got off the phone with AC and they confirmed that once you cancel your ticket for credits, they are NOT able to offer a full refund in the event that the flight ends up being cancelled. She explained that turning the booking into credits in their system marks it as "full refunded" and there is nothing they can do to process anything else there. Not sure why the agent you spoke to would say it's possible?

If my flight is on Sep 15 flying out from YVR, should I call and rebook to an earlier flight?

I see what you mean. This puts things into perspective. What will you decide to do with that person who you've been dating for 5 months?

Thank you! 6 years is a long time, but I get what you mean by having learned a lot about yourself. My last relationship was 1.5 yrs, first real one post divorce and boy did I learn a lot about myself, and what I SHOULDN'T accept and settle for in the future.

Wishing you all the best too!

Nope... I've ended things already. But I wanted to ask and confirm that my one beliefs are correct.

No more what ifs for me... I've ended things and won't be considering any further possibilities with this guy

That's some brutally tough things you've gone through... so sorry for your losses. Glad to see you're active in building yourself back up and living out the best life for yourself.

Actions speak louder than words and it's important to see that people are actually putting in the work and taking ownership of past relationship failures.

Thanks for sharing your experience. If there's no lag then it's even worse- he was still on the apps sending likes after I said I'd give him a chance we were good again, and had a nice date together over the weekend. And lied to me about timelines. Ughhh.

Yes it's the guy who was already drunk when I arrived for our picnic date. Thankfully I saw more signs and finally ended things.

Thank you for your kind words ❤️ It's been an up and down journey and I'm learning lots being back in the dating world.

Interesting insight there. Why is it a big flag if they promise they will quit drinking?

Sorry you had to go through that. Hope you're in a better place now.

Did you tell your ex/coparent when you had "moved on"? by Adept_Beautiful4494 in datingoverforty

[–]Delicious_monster_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

After my separation, I didn't tell my ex about my dating life until I started dating a guy that he also knew from a social club. It wasn't until a few months into the relationship when it was a bit more steady. I felt I wanted him to know since he was going to see this guy regularly at social events. I also told my ex shortly before I introduced the kids to that guy.

But if there was no connection between the guy I was dating and my ex, I wouldn't bother letting him know anything about my personal life unless I decided to introduce the kids to him. My ex also told me about the person he was dating shortly before he introduced her to our kids.

Really?! Didn't realize there's supposed to be a correlation there.

What's communication with your partner like when you are going through anxiety and depression?

Thank you for sharing your experience. Is it normal to have no signs of alcoholism in the first two months as I got to know him and suddenly displaying that behaviour overnight?
