"No, sir, you can't move from row 23 to row 13, even though 13 through 17 are completely empty."
Yeah, United FAs often have to manage this with a whip and a chair. Especially in the South, common to see every seat in Y full while Y+ sits mostly empty.

...guess they don't want people cheapening the Economy product!
