Mixed up days - my flight is Thursday, not Friday. That said, I am not really worried as I would also do well taking the first flight on Friday morning instead. However I would want to be prepared as to what to expect with SK in an oversale situation - since the flight is on a CR9 with no feed to speak of (i.e. near-zero connecting pax) I guess they would not dare to book it at 130% of capacity...rather something like the normal 2-3 or so. Unless, of course, experience would suggest that SK overbooks like DL did in the 90's when booking domestic flights at 130% was considered a lightly booked flight there.

Greetings - Dirk
