What is the logic of why
"the chance for op-up to Y+ would be much more than current op-up to business"?
If the Y+ seats are replacing Business Class seats, wouldn't the chance for an op-up from Y to Y+ be the same (*or less) than it currently is? There are the same number of Y seats, so once all these seats are full, that is when op-ups start.
*With Y+, some people who normally pay for Y will pay for Y+ (but would never pay for Business), therefore selling less tickets in Y, so your chance of an op-up may actually be less.
