My last international bump was $600 for about a 6 hour delay and an extra connection with a BE ticket -- went into BE.
Last successful domestic bump was $400 for no delay -- went from DCA-ATL-MDW to DCA-CVG-ORD.
Last weekend didn't take $400 and a meal voucher for MSP-PDX, the switch was to MSP-DTW-PDX and a 9 hour delay. No guarantee of kind and EF suggested I was going to be in the middle in the back. Ugh!
And wasn't accepted for PDX-MSP-DCA. I offered to take the red eye, depending on the offer but the agent was only looking for PDX-MSP passengers and only offering $200. He got all he needed -- the delay was about 2 1/2 hours.
