offer to take sit in seat 2K so that someone purchasing a business class ticket today can have my business class seat? What happens to those remaining unfilled first class seats, do they bump up the 1K passengers?
If Business Class ends up being oversold and all passengers with a waitlisted Business to First upgrade have been cleared, then there will be op-ups from Business to First based on status and fare. Generally complimentary upgrades on international flights will only occur if the lower cabin is oversold.
