Ticket prices are often high shortly before a flight.
That's because those tickets are usually bought by business travelers who don't want to wait and are willing to pay the higher fare.
So it can make sense to have 5 empty seats if you sold a few more for a premium.
There's a lot of math going into optimizing ticket prices.
