I am currently wait-listed on CX 162 for b-class on January 1, and unfortunately, I lost my status a few months ago. Any chance I will see this get confirmed?

- CX still has 5 PE seats to sell at this stage, so it's not likely your cabin will be overbooked and they will need to op-up
- There still appears to be a lot of seats for Economy too (just that CX doesn't believe it has to sell them cheaply) so there's little need to upgrade people from Economy to PE (which will then CX has to move some more passengers like you from PE to Business).
