I know that's the airline's rationale, but it really is bullshit. They're literally selling more product than they intend to or are capable of providing. It should be illegal. I'm pretty sure it would be for just about any other business.
Restaurants, hotels, and the WTC all do this. Wouldn't be surprised that universities do, too.
But you don't pay the restaurant or hotel in advance for the service and then get told you have to get the service later (or if you do pay in advance, you generally get a refund on the spot).
Except that sometimes you do pay hotels in advance. An airline will refund if you don't want another flight. They often refund if you miss your flight.
