Dates in brackets indicate planned start of rouge service (either as a new route or replacing mainline service). ML placed before a date indicates the date that service is reverting to mainline.

All Airbus A319/A321 service is in the new Premium Rouge configuration with 2x2J seats. All other routes are Boeing 767-300ER aircraft in a 24J/258Y layout.

Airport codes in blue indicate that these routes are Boeing 767-300ER aircraft for all services.
Airport codes in red indicate that these routes are split between Boeing 767-300ER and Airbus services.
Airport codes in black indicate that these routes are Airbus aircraft for all services.

Routes are organized based on the established rouge bases of YYZ, YUL, YYC, and YVR

I simply cannot understand how that is even something that that is even a thing in 2019
Found that out the hard way last month Hadn't flown RV for a while and was unpleasantly surprised that my phone was going to run out of juice mid-flight.

Can someone confirm is row 12 on the rouge 319 has a bulkhead or is it just right behind J? I recall it's the latter, a friend of mine is travelling tomorrow with a cat and is currently in row 12, but she can only stay there if it's not a bulkhead.

I don't off hand remember the row numbers.

No bulkhead. But the forward legs right at foot position, and arms based screens make that a horrible row. The next one back is better.

Except the next row back is 29” pitch. rouge also doesn’t have IFE, so there are no ‘arms based screen’.

I’d stay in row 12.

I would, as well.

If I can’t snag 19A or 19F on an ACr 319, I’ll try for 12ACDF. If I can’t get one of those 6 seats, I’ll fine another flight.

Perhaps poster meant that the food trays are in the armrest? I'm not sure on rouge configuration. I tend to avoid bulkheads where armrests aren't moveable; I often have empty middle seat next to me and like having the extra space that the moveable armrest allows.

Yes, obviously there are no IFE screens. Sorry. But if you rent the ipad, same deal. And the armrest trays are a pain.

Sure, on paper you may get +2" of legroom. Right into a chair leg or emergency box of something. The aisle is Ok if you don't mind being that guy with his legs up in Jrg, but its not a good row.

I do have a "rouge " question. Speaking of that I-Pad. Besides movies does it have GPS map capability?

Was going to post a similar question to this, though our flight is from CUN-YVR. Originally on a Max8 on AC, but now changed to a Rouge 767-300ER. Difference in service, seat, amenities in business class between AC and Rouge on a route from Mexico to Canada? Haven't really flown AC before, so I don't have a direct comparison. Often find myself on AS or UA business/first when I fly. Thanks!

To add: Am thankful that they didn't cancel our direct flight and get re-routed! :-)

He specified business class in what you quoted. I think his post got moved from the other thread where someone mentioned their flight (in J) to YWG got rouged.

I’ve not been in business in United in several years, but my experience was that it is comparable to rouge business. No AVOD, streaming IFE to personal device (or iPad IIRC they’ll let you borrow), meals similar to AC mainline.

In J, it'll be identical aside from the IFE.

Awesome, thanks for the feedback! Like I said, thankful not to have our flight cancelled and/or re-routed with an overnight somewhere. Was more curious than anything on how the products compared in J. Thanks all!

Flying Premium Rouge this summer from LIS to YYZ. Most of the reviews here are older. Has anyone had recent experience.? What can I expect?
