That's pretty true if you don't book far enough ahead of time, which I'd imagine would be a real problem for business travelers or for those who have to travel for other urgent reasons.

However, I tend to book quite a few flights to Eastern Canada out of YVR, partly because I'm a frequent visitor to Vancouver. I have lots more seats to choose from there, of course. Not to mention a better chance of widebodies on transcon flights, though I don't mind narrowbodies if the seat pitch is okay or better.

I just got off an AC flight last night from YVR to St. John's, NL via Calgary and Halifax - sitting on the same plane, which happened to be an AC A319. This is probably the last time I try to do that, especially on an Airbus narrowbody with a seat pitch of only 30-31" in half of the Y class seats. I had the "pleasure" of sitting in one of those with the guy in front reclining in my face for 4 hours between Calgary and Halifax.

But ironically, I've found booking seats out of YEG to YVR for instance easier than was the case before Canadian was taken over by AC.
