It may give me more legroom, but it doesn't give me more comfort - especially not on an (almost) 5 hour flight. It's still a narrow, hard seat and, as you said, the people behind me still have virtually no legroom. All to save $15 and a few hours' drive? No thank you. The AC seat is more comfortable and a few inches wider (and I have short legs, so legroom isn't a huge factor for me).

I don't disagree with you but take the case of my daughter. She is quite petite and recently flew Rouge. She had no major issues with seat width or legroom but she didn't like the knees of the passenger behind her prodding her back for several hours. She now says she will avoid Rouge and make connections to avoid Rouge whenever she can. She is not a regular flier but Rouge left a really foul taste in her mouth.

If ever a seat configuration was designed for people of short stature it was Rouge. Did a return flight yyz to tap. What a cattle car. They have jammed in more seats on tired old A319s and the comfort level is zero. Fares ere $600 for this pathetic flight. Bring on Westjet.....same flights, better aircraft and cheaper fares.

You need a car anyways in order to do certain things (i.e. LAX public transport is not as convenient as other cities its' size, as well as once in SAN, to explore Mexico.)

Nope, I was flying Y; it's less than an inch, but with my hips already in a tight fit, it makes a difference.

I've noticed a huge improvement on my second ACV - Rouge trip. They now have sick bags in the front seat pocket.

I will give my feedback. I just got an email from Rouge yesterday telling me how excited I should be for the flight and what to expect. The only problem I had is with the IFE you need an Apple product or laptop. I only have Android so most likely will load my own entertainment.
