The IDB payments are only due when a passenger is involuntarily denied boarding

The airline makes offers to passengers to voluntarily take another flight in exchange for items such as travel vouchers. Those that choose to take a later flight in exchange for vouchers have not been denied boarding; they have just chosen to take a later flight

Knowing your rights will not help you avoid being denied boarding involuntarily
