The rest is competition, business, economic forces.
But mainly the punchline to the koan about the MBA professor after listening to a pricing exercise. "Your all wrong. Charge what the market can bear"
We have a winner. The domestic J market in Canada is small and relatively price insensitive. So they can charge it, so they do.
If I had to guess, I would guess that the domestic J cabin is, on average: 40% upgraders, 20-30% connecting to international J, and only 30% or so paying for an actual J, C, D, P, or Z fare.
