exactly its all unknown until about 45mins before when final count is done...anything can happen. They will oversell Y by more than J but remember the Y seats prepared to sell probably account for op ups as well...its a complicated business trying to figure it out.
in my experience they will certainly offload Y with no status etc if they have no space for them after all op ups
