Actually this got me thinking maybe those customers were customers in W getting upgraded to J? With #1 being either a displaced pax or CK?

However, I have noticed a similar oddity on a domestic flight last month so I feel there is something up with how the upgrade list and airport list not syncing up the way it should.
