Doesn't work cause the gate is on your boarding pass and in all the mobile apps for the airlines. People just want to be at their gate so they don't miss announcements or anything else, and you're not going to be able to get the airlines to change their systems.

But yes, some Air Canada flights are getting posted 2 hours prior. Obviously waaaay too long.

The shortest post time is 45 minutes for some transborders. Others are 50 min, WestJet transborder is 1:15. Nobody is less than 45.
