The last thing you ever want to do is start a fight with a cop and
that is doubly true at an airport where every little infraction is a
federal crime.

But Oren is super badass, even the feds wouldn't dare to mess with him.

And FWIW, if you don't want bumped, buy an adult seat up front or
charter a Gulfstream. Airlines only bump the riffraff in coach.

Nobody would get bumped if the airlines didn't **** up with their
overbooking. I'm amazed there isn't a better control of this issue
considering overbooking is common. They waste so much money with
overbooking the need to offset the cost reflects on the rest who fly.

How exactly would you solve it? There is no solution, other than to
not overbook. They overbook based on modeling and statistical analysis.
Usually it works fine, occasionally they don't have enough seats.
And are you willing to pay the increased ticket costs to eliminate
overbooking?
