I am flying out from DFW to ONT on July 3, connecting through MSP. I am taking the last flight of the day out of MSP to ONT, and was wondering what were my chances of not getting out. The flight numbers are NW 1487 and NW 1029, and both are oversold right now. I do have seats assigned to me right now, but beyond that I am worried that a "delay" will get me bumped off the flight. I do not have much experience with NW, but I know United is bad about consolidating flights at the end of the day, and blaming it on some unrelated storm 1000 miles away. Any help would be appreciated.</font>
First off, your flight is not oversold, it's overBOOKED. It's only overSOLD if they all show up.
