Here’s something I haven’t seen before. Mind you, I’ve never bothered to look before...

Put in a bid for a J upgrade on AC1122 this Saturday. Haven’t received a confirmation or denial email, and it’s now T-42.

On the booking tool, AC is still selling up two tickets in J (and up to one in Y). But the J seat map shows all the seats in the cabin selected. There were three or four J seats open on the map yesterday (and two for sale) when I placed the bid.

Any ideas why they’re still selling J seats with a fully-allocated cabin?

My half-assed guess is that IT has picked the successful bid upgrades and seated them, but is holding out on confirmation in the off chance the seats will sell. But there's far smarter folks on here who may have a better idea.
