Ah! Yes, they were in 8D, 8G, and I thought there was someone in 8K as well. I guess the next question is where did the original pilot and co-pilot go? They didn't take the spot of the relief crew.
And does this mean for long-haul flights, they have a couple of business class seats that they don't sell? Or do the relief crew just take the best seats available.
I'm not sure why I'm so curious about this - but thanks for humoring me....
