That brings up another thought i've had. My SYD-SFO flight next week still is showing as...

Code:
J9 C9 D9 I0 W9 T9 B9 H9 K9 M9 L9 V9 S9 N9 QC OC XC E0
Yet the seat map has been closed for some time now. CMT still has it, but EF hasn't for the past week and a half. I know that loads on SYD-SFO have never been as good as LAX, so I can only assume that QF are just opening up every fare class at 9 in the hope they can get 'bums on seats', or am I totally wrong in my thinking?
