IIRC the desktop version hides the blocked count, so I think (+1 blocked) for crew rest is the reason.

The first doesn't look likely to clear many upgrades, but with a GS instrument you will be near the top of the pile. Second I'd say is pretty good odds (especially for being Friday instead of Thursday), and the third should be pretty easy although 3 pax together is always a big ask.
