I booked two of the J seats to BGI on the 27th, phoned up just before 7PM EST to catch the ticket release.
We booked a very similar time last year, and there was far more availability on the BGI route. Last year I was able to book online easily a few weeks after the seats were released (albeit a bit earlier in December, so probably not as high in demand).
However I was tracking seatspy a lot around this time last year, and the BGI route is definitely more booked up!
