That's not a nice schedule. If they absolutely insist on Y, then maybe they can buy an extra seat for you (it's just the fare, no taxes etc), and hopefully use that to get a seat pair (eg, at the rear of plane) to make life a little less unpleasant. Think it's known as a "comfort seat" in US parlance and also EXST I think.

I am expected to fly overnight to a destination that is roughly 12 hours away, have one night there and a meeting and then fly back overnight (so 2 12 hour trips in economy, overnight, in 60ish hours)
