Curious result from our recent LCY-ZRH UG. (We wouldn't normally do this on such a short E190 route but the prospect of imminent Gold for both of us helped decide.)

Outbound, Mrs Roger and I were the only CE passengers and needless to say the service was great. ET was nowhere near full, and I was wondering about the economics of the deal.

Then OLCI-ing for the inbound, no seats had been reserved other than ours - a (potentially) empty cabin from which to select 2CD. We'll see later whether anybody will join us.

FWIW we are on separate PNRs - mine originally an HBO.
