There is Z space on the flight and have never done CX before in any class of service
If you're planning on staying awake, you'd probably be better off taking 889 (reverse direction) instead if you can work it into your plans. 888 on the YVR-JFK sector is more of a chill out flight. After the meal, almost everyone sleeps until 40 minutes outside of JFK, if not longer. There is no better way to cross the country than 888/889, but don't expect much in the way of service on 888.
