If you look at certain weekends days in March 2018 - certain days have all J class cabins on the rouge flights already sold out!
I don't believe that their programming allows for an immediate and automatic asignment of a seat once a passenger has released it. A manual booking of the seat will work. I also don't believe that they oversell J. I am 90% confident this strategy will work.
