Wendy,

We were not on that bus, at least I don't remember use of the fold-down seats. I agree with you regarding the population of that segment. It was, by far, the most crowded and had a significantly different feel from the first 55 days of the cruise. Also the 9 day segment from Dubai to Mumbai was not as crowded as the last segment but had a little feel of that portion of the trip. Maybe it was that there were a number of pax that came only for those nine days and consequently didn't integrate well with pax from prior segements.
