Also C has gone from 6 to 4 in the last week. What happened to those two seats? We are not in the seven day window so no SE can have upgraded in the last week. What else is pulled from C?</font>
You don't necessary have to pull a seat from the C class inventory for it to go up/down. Many factors come into play. If the flight is overbooked, AC will sometimes zero out C class just accomodate comp upgrades on the day of departure [happens mainly on domestic flights] or if "J" is starting to sell, then they would decrease the number of "C" available so only people paying full J will have access to those seats. Remember, AC's system haven't changed a bit since the new upgrade rules were implemented, it's still the same crappy one.
