But i think more importantly, whats the qualifier for this? Some airlines do not give the option of buying a second seat, some close to arrival, etc. is it is simoly when you book, the seat next to you is vacant, which means in a world of seat reservations fees, at time of booking, even lne week out, two seats are very likely to be available.
Y+ is not premium economy (as on international flights). Just a generic term for a Y economy/coach seat with more leg room.
