Perhaps I am having a problem with reading comprehension but both post 128

it could be as high as $1350

The $1350 limit is DOT imposed for involuntary bumping with a 2 hour delay in arrival.
say that the limit, or maximum, compensation is 1350.

That is wrong, the 1350 is the minimum required for tickets that cost 337.50 or more. There is no maximum. So statements saying or suggesting that the DOT rules limit the amount the airline can offer to 1350 are incorrect. So I believe I am not repeating information already presented, rather I am attempting, apparently poorly, to correct misinformation on the regulations for involuntary bumping compensation.
