What the community said
From a recent traveler’s experience, seats were still available about 2 weeks before departure, but mainly in the more expensive class. Economy was almost fully sold out on the day sales opened, so it’s best to book it immediately.

If the cheaper fare is gone, passengers may still be able to pay extra and move to a higher class. According to traveler reports, some people do exactly that when economy sells out.
