How would you interpret these numbers?

I have a flight tomorrow and the EF numbers look like this:

J0 C0 D0 Z0 P0 R0 I0 O0 E0 N0 Y0 B0 M0 U0 H0 Q0 V0 W0 G0 S0 T0 L0 A0 K0 X0 F0

According to the standby and upgrade list #s for the flight, Business is 14/30, Premium Economy is 2/21.

I am an E50K and flying on a flex fare.

Are my chances good for an op-up?

Thanks if you are able to read the tea leaves for me.

It's wide open in all cabins. I'd be planning for a downgauge. A big one. It would still be wide open on a 788.

That probably explains why my original seat selection changed and was unavailable to me upon check-in. That flight is flown by an A321 later in November, I believe.

Day of experience:
We are still on the 789 - albeit on a different fin #.

AC 8 on Nov 10 is showing R9, yet you can't upgrade?

There was a FIN swap from 835 to 833, but the reason why it was zeroed out was due to the BC Lions team and their support staff having an empty seat between each other in Y.

edit: I don’t know how J/PY looked as I was in Y and boarded with Zone 2.
