The 73Y seats NZ blocked = not enough for routine events.

The plane actually carried 27J 33W 142Y ( 60Y pax without their bags)

They are going need more blocked seats for the Northern hemisphere winter. for sure, when the winds are the strongest.
How do you know they haven't already blocked more?

They did say was X seats on the first flights & said throughout the year would block different amount of seats.

They may be blocked now as they are reserving more.
