So more tickets sold more bumps does not equal forgoing sales. it was just something they made up to try to cover their bad performance. No excuse this month.

The traffic cut was an interesting one. Anyone who dug into it would see right through it. Not only what you mentioned, but prior to the cutover they even said they were not overbooking for that weekend. So 3-ish days of no overbooking should would barely make a blip on a report covering an entire quarter.
