My parents flight was booked for Thursday and it will probably be full. I wonder what the procedure will be? Those on booked flights go first and then those delayed get put on any spare seats?

Yup, AFAIK that is the protocol, those pre-booked on flights due to fly get first priority and those that have been delayed have to be moved around and squeezed on any spare spaces.

Best to check with the airline though.

That will please them. They have the ticket booked from a couple of months ago and have been out there a month so want to come back. The airlines web page shows it as scheduled.

Extra flights and I've heard the possibility of night-time flights, which will be a right pain if it happens over here as I'll have planes flying overhead all through the night. (8+(

I could practically throw stones at the airport from where I live. And sometimes you feel like doing just that :lol:
