I did take a walk to the back and Y was not full even after the swap.

Anyhow flight was late by 45 min, plane parked at remote stand and after bus to terminal was met by agent and escorted with golf cart to transit for onwards connection to SYD.

Did notice a reduction in service. Plate service per course (back to tray) as well as the satay and bbq pork option with noodle soup for mid flight snacks were gone. It was back to mama noodles with fish cake and egg. Also they ran out of champagne 😭, in C that is new to me.
