On August 7 , I purchased rt hnl-iah for $700.

Today, Aug 15, I noticed the fare has dropped to $400.

The seating chart shows 0 seats open in E, and 11 seats open in F.

After a $50 rebooking fee, I get a voucher for $216?

I am now flying N instead of M.

This just seems very strange to me. And now that I am flying N instead of M, does that decrease my chance of being bumped up to F, even though I am a plat with 136K eqms ytd.
