Perhaps LH are erring on the wrong side in their capacity control. Over the past few weeks I have had several rotations to FRA, out on the 953 and back on the 954, mainly 319s but the occasional 320. Virtually all flights, especially the 954, were full or very close to it. On 3 Sep the 954 (a 320) was overbooked and they were having to offer compensation for VDBs.

It is good for BHX and LH that there are so many passengers but if the denied boarding continues, passengers may think twice before booking LH.
