So I was doing a MR this past week and had already received my CPU from HNL-ORD when at the gate they announce F is overbooked and they want volunteers to downgrade, $1500 compensation offered. I had my laptop out and by the time I packed my things up to head over 4 other people had already offered to "sacrifice" themselves. 2 of them had 1k tags on their luggage and I'm guessing they also had received CPU's.
Do you guys know how often things like this happen? I found it really odd since I only received my CPU about 20 hours prior to departure. I've never had this happen on any of my flights before and was wondering if I can expect it to happen again. I would have loved to get the $1500 voucher, could have booked 4 more trips to hawaii hoping this would happen again and I'd go infinite :D:D
