April 2004 - February 2005, every month = 0 seats available
I did a quick check of paid seat availability for the last two weeks of April 2004 and the last two weeks of June 2004, and a paid J seat was available every day. I would guess that with the possible exception of a few holidays, paid J seats are available on this route every day from April 2004 - February 2005.
I can maybe see how a month or so would be blocked out this summer due to the Olympics, but no availability for an entire year?
It's obviously the Athens leg as "She who must be obeyed" and I are off to Philly next month on a MFU, WT+ ---> NCW (Thanks Travelex

) and had no problem with getting booked...virtually every date was available!
