[QUOTE="Daughters_were_Frogs, post: 3239491, member: 71010"] They will certainly try to avoid it if they can, especially as they've angered so many people already. But their crews are scattered all over the country and they must get them positioned correctly to get the airline back on track. Bumping 20 people, say, off a flight to accommodate crew members to fly four airplanes full of passengers will be seen to be the correct call. Most likely, the poor gate agent will be left to tell bumped passengers that the flight is "overbooked" and involuntary denied boardings are necessary. I spent over 30 years in the airline business with a couple different airlines and I've never seen a mess this big. I can't even imagine the long term consequences for SWA, to say nothing of the short term consequences to our fans trying to get to the game. [/QUOTE]
