## Payment & rules

| | |
|---|---|
| **Total** | **CA$1,369.76** (CA$684.88 × 2, taxes incl.) |
| **Paid by** | MS — Amex 1003, Aug 31, 2026 |
| **eTickets** | 0162135520491 (LK) · 0162135520492 (MS) |
| **Bags** | Not included: 1st checked bag **CA$69 per direction** (50 lb / 23 kg) |
| **Fare rules** | Non-refundable, no value after departure; cancel before departure to retain credit |

**Airport timing:** international check-in — bags dropped and boarding pass ≥60 min
before departure; at gate ≥30 min before.

**Still to do:** obtain the Kansas City segment arrival times, flight numbers and
seat assignments; pick return-leg seats · pay the return bag fee at AC online check-in
(opens 7:30 PM Oct 3) or the SFO counter — advance purchase unavailable on this
UA-issued ticket. Expect **CA$69** (the ticketed rate); AC's site shows its own C$50
rate, so the quote at check-in may come in lower.
