[QUOTE="achromaticmike, post: 1086780, member: 4885"] If you didn't allow them to oversell seats then there would probably be no such thing as a cancellation or ticket change policy because airlines would have to ensure that every sold seat remained paid for. United asked him to deplane in good faith under a policy that rewards premier status, fare class, earlier check-in, etc... He refused and law enforcement got involved. Airline overbooking isn't an obscure fact hidden in a software EULA. It's pretty common knowledge and all airlines do it. [/QUOTE]
