How much do you want to bet, on that week both will be completely full.

Also, I'd bet a good many seats on the Rouge flight are reserved for AC Vaca...
The WestJet flight is a 737-800 with;
Economy Plus 36-39" pitch 18.5" wide seats
Economy 31-33' pitch 18.5 wide seats
vs.
Premium Rouge 37" pitch 18.5 wide seats
Rouge Plus 35"pitch 18 " wide seats
Economy 30" pitch 17.5 wide seats

For the majority of customers, the ones who are price sensitive, who do you think will be more comfortable? I offer that the 232 AC pax sitting in the cramped cheap seat space will be more miserable than the 156 WestJet pax sitting in the slightly roomier cheap seats.
