Be careful with deals, there was a WSJ article a bit ago


Detailing how people were locking in flight deals related to covid lack of demand and having their reservation switched to other flights at the last moment.

Speculation is that the bargin shoppers are getting bumped to less desirable flights where late peaking demand allows the airline to backfill the preferred flights with higher fare customers.
