There is absolutely no reason to over book flights. Airlines should treat flights just like cruise lines treat cabins. You bought it, its yours. If you don't show up, tough luck unless you buy insurance. Then this does not happen. If you need to move a flight crew then those seats do not get sold. This is all about greed by the airlines and enough stroke in Washington to make it happen. So the little guy takes the beating. Vote with your wallet and his changes!
