If you do decide to torture your family with Rouge, 60 minutes seems to be the minimum connect time, and 75 minutes is doable at YUL.
And yes, AC would rebook them.
Thanks....very good advice....I'm not familiar with AC Rouge but I did fly AC's cattle car, vintage 767 ATH-YUL several years ago and vowed never to have anything to do with AC again.
But, the AC Rouge flight is the only available flight that I've found that day with one possible exception. They could take Aegean ATH-FRA connecting to LH FRA-BOS, but involves leaving a couple hours earlier and a 7 hour layover in FRA, then arriving BOS about 2 hours later than AC. So is adding about five hours to their trip length worth it to avoid AC?
