With the imminent transfer of the 737 MAX 8s to Rouge, I think there should be a separate thread to track these transfers/refurbs and to discuss the transfer.

What We Know So Far

• 52 frames to be refurbed --> 5 will be delivered in 2026
• 12J 165Y configuration --> 18 Preferred seats
• Complimentary Wi-Fi for all Aeroplan members --> sponsored by Bell
• Personal touch screens at every seat (!!)
• New crew base to be opened up in Vancouver --> likely for the ETOPS-certified frames to run Hawaii trips
• Existing Rouge aircraft have different futures --> A319s to be retired, A320 + A321 to be transferred to mainline AC and undergo refurbishment

See wiki above for status on aircraft
