Some people will be waiting to move where they sit and the initial discount is also available to new people for a couple of weeks afterwards, before the prices rise.
Indeed. Figures can be spun anyway you want.
Some will be moving seats or stands and be deliberately waiting for this period to end. I think it's a shame and a bit of an oversight that the period doesn't go beyond the end of the month, as that's when many will get paid.
