United laid out a series of changes that include increased training for employees, a $10,000 incentive for voluntarily bumped passengers on overbooked flights and a promise to reduce the amount of overbooking on flights. The review goes on to say that United will no longer require already seated customers to give up their seats. The review spelled out United’s policy on how it selects passengers for involuntary bumping:--First, anyone without a seat assignment is denied boarding. --Passengers who paid the least for their ticket top the list for being bumped involuntarily. --Customers with status in United's MileagePlus frequent-flyer program won't be bumped unless everyone on the plane has status, in which case the people with the lowest status get bumped first.
