I expect to see this change in the future as they upgrade their revenue managment technology and with their recent focus of improving yields and revenue. Overbooking has the biggest bang in terms of improving revenue..if done correctly.
Never gonna happen. Thats like saying jetBlue will charge for the DirecTV service. The executives at jetBlue is fully aware of the fact that overbooking flights is a good money maker but they don't because it is just one of those things that jetBlue does and everyone else that don't know jetBlue that well will just sit there and go "huh? but why?"
