that's what I figured the first time, but it's two weeks out.. So I dont think it's a situation of too late or overbooked (there's space in Y)

My hunch: it's a case of 'cram them in, once in a while - it'll be ok'

.. but as others have said, it's not ok given the often price parity on the route with BA
