G9 means loads of WT untaken.

CW is J6, so that suggests maximum of 6 ready to sell, minus no-shows. W3 plus zero else in WTP would to me suggest they would sell 3 seats but 2 of them would potentially be put in CW, since W is an expensive fare, good revenue on that. Add in AUPs and perhaps even a few POUGs, given that not many passengers on the late JFK will be at the airport yet, then I suspect somehow WTP passengers will end up in CW and the cabin will operate full.
