Does Ryanair still adhere (largely) to a no-overbooking rule, or has thought been given to maybe doing it to a modest and non-trivial degree ? The only case I know of was max 6 pax in the morning on STN-DUB pre Covid when there were maybe 9 flights per day

I'm aware Easyjet has definitely and deliberately overbooked in the past and I got on a flight on more than 1 occasion only because of checked in pax not showing up at the gate. I've been on an overbooked Wizz flight once, but not sure if that was deliberate or just accident

I ask particularly because Covid has presumably led to a higher level of noshows because of pax getting last minute nerves about high levels of cases when travelling away from home

Note - I'm not looking for a discussion about whether overbooking should be legal or not - that topic has been discussed endlessly on the web already
