I wont be VDB'ing. Actually, EK IM and the load controllers do a pretty good job. There were seats in F (about 5 as of yesterday). Golds in J would have been moved forward, they would have then made a decision as to how many they were oversold down the back and looked at their average no-show rate for this sector. They'll then massage the numbers and make it work.
