    Have flown at least twice a year for two decades and never even heard of an airline overbooking a flight.

    The EU would tear you a new arsehole if you tried to sell something that doesn’t exist

      Man, don’t go reading into Failure to Delivers (FTDs) and Naked Shorting then. Those two economic concepts are absolutely raping the American economy.

      It can happen in Europe maybe depends on the airline not sure. I have been asked recently if I was okay traveling the next day in Athens.

      They will pay you to get you off the flight + plus hotel but it’s definitely possible.
