Never leave if you were bumped from a ✈️ hack #travelhacks #travelsmart

Don't ever leave the airport if you get bumped from a flight. Do this instead. Hey airline, this says I got bumped from my flight. Yeah, I'm so sorry. This flight is full. But I can get you on the next flight that departs in two and a half hours. And here's a $10 food voucher. Go grab yourself an overpriced water bottle. Two and a half hours? Can I get some sort of compensation for that?

What do you want me to do? Pull a plane out of my pocket? No, but I do read the fine print and I know that I'm eligible for some goods. According to DOT regulations, you legally cannot bump me like this without compensation. Here's the exact script to say if this ever happens to you.

Since my flight got delayed over two hours and I paid $500 for this ticket, you owe me four times my one-way fare. Okay, you're right. We'll mail you a check in three to five business days. Wrong.

You're supposed to pay me the same day. Oh, fine. Here's your $2,000. But how'd you know about this? But how'd you know about this? I just follow Addison for everything money, and you should too.
