How many of those 551 oversales were voluntary (vouchers) and how many were IDB (requiring cold hard cash)?

If vouchers, No Big Deal.

If cash, I hope the 551 pax who bumped those 551 paid more than $400 each. B)

Airlines really need to move toward an ala carte pricing model for checked and carryon bags: $10 each would have brought in over a million dollars (88k plus carryons) that day.
