These planes will not be used on flights outside of the specific routes to which they are assigned, so rest assured that IFE will be available on all flights in the rest of the network.
Yes but... If you are paying to sit up front, you get what you pay for, and on my recent non-XM flight I do recall that Z and J fares were lower than I would have expected. So point noted. However, if using a cert to upgrade, it would be a waste of a cert which otherwise might have got you into an XM J seat.
