On a trip to Hawaii. They asked for volunteers and were offering $200 each. No one took it. Then they upped it to $400 each and no one took it. Then they went to $800 each and a couple of people took it but they needed more.
So I went to the counter and asked them what flight they would out us on. The one they put us on would change us from slc to LA to Kauai, to slc, to Phoenix, to Kauai and we’d get to Kauai 1 hour earlier even though we’d leave slc 2 hours later. So I told them we’d do it for the $800 plus flight vouchers and they gave it to us. Best deal I ever made honestly.
