DUB-BOS Nov 4, near empty flight

Lovely flight on Monday in biz class DUB-BOS. I like to get up regularly and walk the length of the plane during the flight. While it is quite normal for biz to have say only 6-8 people, on previous flights to New York, economy would be full full full. This was my first flight to Boston, and expected same.

On Monday, I am not sure if there were even 50 people. Loads of empty rows of 4 middle sections - amazing that NO ONE was making use of any of these in a "bed like" manner.

Spoke with the cabin crew, and was told how they "lucked out" - the later flight to Boston was apparently FULL as was the flight from Shannon. So they were perplexed (but very pleased) that the flight was so empty, as I was told nowadays, flights are normally very full.
