Overbooked flights
Overbooked flights
Does it happen often? For example SIA? I've read a lot online but does it happen much? Very curious. Anyone had experiences before?

Re: Overbooked flights
Not often, in my experience. Has only happened a handful of times in my decades of flying. Understand it's a more common occurrence with budget airlines.

Re: Overbooked flights
Pre covid, I flew Singapore Airlines, British Airways and Cathay quite regularly. The way I think about "overbookedness" is if there are free upgrades.
I have flown SQ the most and have never seen an upgrade.
BA and Cathay I was regularly upgraded for free (Economy to Premium Economy, or Premium to Business)

Re: Overbooked flights
I've been upgraded once on SQ. Extremely rare. As I recall they upgraded my seat but not my meal as well.

Your rugrat needs a School? Avoid for profit schools
You need Tax advice? Ask a CPA
You ran away without doing NS? Shame on you!
