I figure you have to give everyone the same amount. If I talked to someone else and found out they got twice as much, I'd be pretty mad. Anyone know the airlines' practices?
I was on a HP flight from LAX to LAS, they offered $200 voucher and a flight 1 hour later. I took the offer but they still needed more passengers. Few minutes later they offered $300. GA called me over and said I would be getting $300 and a seat up front for volunteering first.
