yesterday suddenly the available seats reduced dramatically from more than 2/3 to only few left. Is this normal shorrly before OLCI? A reason to get nervous?
the seats available to select reduce dramatically at t-72 when theoretical seating kicks in. As your flight is on the 17th, that would have been yesterday. I have included part of the seat map below. Any seat with an X is blocked. Not occuppied.
theoretical seating blocks lots of seats, including blocking seats in order to try to keep your party of 3 sat next to each other. You will see many blocks of 3, it would not surprise me when you che k in one or 2 of these are shown to you.
Much more info about theoretical seating in this thread.
