Yeah they overbook every flight to make sure they get paid for every seat. Okay to get overpaid and refund. Also okay to simply penalize people for not selecting a seat in advance as a filter system. Happened to me for Accelerate. And no it’s not really okay. Airlines are a massive scam and the rules have actually changed. They use to not really be able to do this - but apparently now they can without recourse. Same exact line of shit too. Good luck man. This blows. We pay a premium to remove this from the stress of travel. Same thing with moving. Those mfers are massive scammers. No recourse. But blast their ass on X and they will give ya the “I’m sorry for the inconvenience- we at ——- aim to make all travelers have the best exp. Please DM your flight info and we will do everything we can to make sure we take care of you” Yeah mfer? Get me on the flight I paid for. Otherwise too late. I’ll post about this and call you out every day for the next year. I can automate that shit - all you had to do was to fly my ass someplace for the money I paid 3 mos ago to do it.

"you've been put as a stand by for this flight and do not have a seat" "I booked and fully paid for this flight 3 months ago. And we are going to get to fly on this plane?" "We have enough seats and are at capacity. Our manager will be here after the whole flight boards and they will try to assign you a seat. We have enough. "Wait, so are the 3 of us going to be on this plane or are you kicking us off?" "You don't have a seat and we are at capacity. I've worked on airlines for 30 years and this is how it's always been done." "You've been doing this for 30 years and you can't tell me if I'm going to be on this plane?"
