Thank you. I did try reaching out to OZ and they said it depends on whether UA will reissue. So I'm guessing if they do reissue, seat will be lost.

There isn't any availability with F since that class doesn't exist. But there isn't any availability in J either. However, when I spoke to United, they said they can rebook and keep first leg in J and second in Y (which i'm fine with), but again, no guarantees on seat.

Thank you for letting me know!

Thanks everyone for your help!
