What I want to know is are these upgrades being offered because Y is nearly full so they will be upgrading passengers of status if Y ends up oversold OR is it just an extremely light flight so lots of room in Y to spread out and so save my miles to upgrade on return if available....
In my recent experience such offers also occur when Y is not full, but it doesn't mean that this is the case, more than anything it indicates that J isn't full, not much about Y loads
