LinkPizza 12/26/20 11:45:33 AM #19:	adjl posted... Every flight can be oversold, but many (particularly to less popular destinations and/or at slower times of the year) aren't. Off-hand, I have no idea what percentage of flights actually are, but it's well below 100%. Idk the percentage. I just remember them saying that some people won't make a flight and so they overbook a bunch of them... That being said, some less desired places do get overbooked sometimes... adjl posted... Depends a lot on the airline, and often the payment is just a voucher for future flights with that airline. Regardless, the fact that I'll be compensated if I have to wait doesn't make it any less stressful that I might have to do so, particularly where I'm often not in a position where waiting is really an option for me and that means I'm relying on strangers to give up their spots. I always hate it because I booked my flight at a specific time for a reason. Especially with my job, I have to take leave. So, I'd rather not waste my leave because they decided to be greedy and overbook a flight... I remember I almost got removed, too. I was headed back to my current town (one of those less desired places), and my flight was overbooked (even though we had bought our tickets months in advance). So, I almost had to just wait (for something?), but got lucky. One of the guys from work fell asleep on the plane and got lost trying to find where everybody went. So, a spot on the plane opened up. They told my to sit in his seat, which was the first seat on the plane. When I got on, someone was in my seat. So, I just looked for the only empty seat on the plane. After getting seated, they need to remove someone from the plane. We heard the flight attendant say something to the guy in the seat I was suppose to be in, and it sounded like she said my name. I sunk my seat and looked at one of my friends. They removed someone else, then when she passed me, said said, "You're Link Pizza, aren't you?" I nodded and said yes. But didn't get removed. Though, if I did, it would have caused a stink... --- Official King of Kings Switch FC: 7216-4417-4511 Add Me because I'll probably add you.
