More specifically, it looks like they will offer up to $10,000 to be voluntarily bumped (you volunteer to give up your seat). If you are involuntarily bumped, the maximum you will be compensated is $1350. Good marketing move since it gets headlines and the chances they will ever have to offer that high of a number is very slim indeed.
