Have you tried to beg and plead to get that return changed?
It seems to me like you have a good story to try to get a supervisor to open up the seats for you - most likely seats are available and someone could put you in those seats as a measure of goodwill.
Maybe AF doesn't do that but you could try, you might have ok results if that is the only issue you focus on initally. i.e. AF took one day of vacation from you due to pilot issues, they are to blame, they can help you with that.
