I'm actually not sure. My UA buddy says Y is over by 5 and there are 4 open seats in J. Looking at past flight history for mainline flights between ORF and IAD shows that there may have been a downgauge - normally it's operated with an A320 or a 738, my flight is operated with an A319. The flight is no longer available to be booked on ua.com as far as I can tell and, like I mentioned as well, EF is showing zero availability in all fare classes.

Don't have any checked luggage, thank goodness. And I'm extremely flexible -- if they offered ORF-IAH-PIT or something equally stupid I'd probably take it.

Fingers crossed..
