Different flight times or different connection waiting times, perhaps?

How about prices? Same/different? Typical for this time of year?

My flight was EY 402 arrived 06.50.
Business class was 50%, Economy looked 80% full from what I saw at the gate.
I booked in November, Etihad business class was by far the cheapest at £1600 inc all taxes and car to/from the airport (up to 50 miles foc)
I always look around for best price, used to be Eva Air but their business class has gone up by some £600.
Best price I saw in November was £290(economy) with Austrian but was only available for 48hrs.
