ATA Nonrev ?

[chperplt]

I called your reservations # tonight and was told that a flight had 20 open seats still. Do you know how many seats you guys generally oversell? I asked her if those 20 seats included oversell, and she couldn't tell me..

Thanks

chperplt-

If you give me the details on your flight, I can access our non-rev listing site and tell you exactly how many seats are available to you. PM me or post the info here.

If a res agent told you there were 20 seats left, there were probablly 20 actual seats left. Most flights are only oversold by five seats or so, some only sell to the actual limit. This is somewhat remarkable since there isn't a fee for same day standby. I would think that this policy would be abused fairly regularly.

Have a fun trip.
