What are the best days and best airlines for getting bumped? I know that around Christmas and Thanksgiving are big, but are there any other big travel weekends? I want to put together some runs for next year, and if I plan ahead, it would be nice to schedule these around busy travel days and get a bump or two.</font>
I suspect that it depends on the airport and event of public interest. I had good luck getting bumped flying SEA-SLC on Presidents' Day weekend a couple of years ago. It seems that weekend is high ski season there.
