O.K., so we all know that we are travelling during one of the busiest air travel holidays, so...I must ask, what is the best way to secure a bump ticket at this time? My first thoughts are to get to the airport VERY early, so that you can get on the "wait list". Second, I should without a doubt, ask the question "can I be flight protected on another flight?'" Other than that, are there any other suggestions for me? I am going from ISP-FLL on 11/24 and returning on that infamous Sunday of the holiday. Flying Southwest, so I am not sure that my above suggestions will work. Is this worth the trouble on such a busy holiday?
