I had to laugh .........OK it's the DM. They can't even write 'easyJet' properly.

EasyJet captain asked for volunteers to leave overbooked flight in exchange for later journey, hotel stay and 400 Euros | Mail Online

It wasn't overbooked, it was above MTOW. Then you get the reader comments from the idiotic :
100 seats = 100 tickets, how can you over book, someone needs maths lessons.

to the more intelligent :
.... the pilot obviously acted accordingly, by ensuring that the plane was safe to fly. I'm unsure of what is being reported here. Although I have noticed that the DM consistently prints negative comments regarding low cost airlines.
