UA blocking more than 1/2 Polaris cabin on PVG flights - (China’s Five One policy?)



This is UA 857 SFO-PVG today (12/22) with a stop at ICN to change crew.

Biz Class was showing 29 booked, and 29 blocked. There were 35 people on upgrade list.

After it took off, the seat map shows 55/60 occupied. No info was given how many cleared upgrade.

Could anyone tell me what happened? Why did UA block so many J seats?







Same story for UA 857 on Friday, 12/24. Total: 21+ 35 blocked. There are 16 people on upgrade list. See above.

What's going on?
