Was kinda expecting it, with expertflyer showing heavy seat occupancy in Y and light in J, with zero in F, and Y selling out for 3 days two weeks prior to the flight with avaliablity opening up in Y right until the date of flying.

In the end not a seat left in J cabin, not sure how many were in F.

Was quite nice to have after just having done a 16 hour in Y LAX-DXB with an 8 hour transit prior.
