[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You may have to choose a seat that has a premium charge assigned to it - anywhere from $25-$100 more. There is a color key when picking seats that tells you if there is a charge for the available seats. It may be that all of the “free” economy seats are taken (or are all in the middle row between other seats so not together).[/quote]

No. They will give OP those seats for free the day of the flight. OP, don't be fooled into paying even more for them. [/quote]

Our recent flights were fully booked (or oversold). I would not count in sitting anywhere desirable if you wait.

If they can claim a mechanical issue then they don't pay anything.  We got bumped because they allegedly had to "use a different plane" and it had two fewer seats.  Of course there was no mention of when that substitution was made or actual proof.

This is the problem. If a plane is oversold, the people without seat assignments are the first to be bumped. [/quote]

If you have a ticket they aren't allowed to just bump you off the flight.  They have to pay people to get off voluntarily.  They keep raising the payout until enough people volunteer to get off.  There was a story in the news the other day where Delta had to pay either $5,000 or $10,000 per person to get people to volunteer on a flight out of MN.[/quote][/quote]
