After all, it's not like AC wants to give anyone a price break for being crammed into Rouge aircraft.
Well since its rumour and palace intrigure from reliable sources. i'd bet the following. A comment on here was made by one of the Bens a while back that they were working on the rouge J thing for routes where it was warranted...
My honest guess? There are going to be a few rouge planes stay in all Y to fly the routes where that makes sense... highlighted in red on this things wiki... The rest where they're selling them as J will flip over, as obviously the revenue model makes sense.
