I check today (March 26 is the flight) and there are only two more J seats left...Were the remaining J seats upgraded or purchased by customers?
Yes. That or people cleared ahead of you (rare).

You could have put in your request 10 days ahead on a flex fare as there is a promo going on. It usually is a 5 day window for E50Kers
